Nobody advertises this service as far as I'm aware in Australia.
Somebody got plating of a razor done at a Marrickville (?) chrome plating works from memory and I *think* somebody has spoken about some jewelers doing it.
You have Auckland Razor Company across the ditch and Razor Emporium, Back Roads Gold, RazorPlate and others in the USA as options.
Whoever you use I would contact them first before sending a razor!

Dustin, who worked for Chris took over the running of BRG and bought it. Chris is semi retired spending time making 3d razor cases, gold detecting and grand kid minding. He helps Dustin if required.

Silver gleam used to consider it and has done a few members razors historically, yet they closed shop.
Demon Performance Coatings trialed cerakote on a few of my razors, yet I did not see their return due to issues both sides of the fence (strange for an ex copper).
Had a place copper cost a zalmac metal modern razor in the shire.
Apparently was a pita for them.
So ask metal coaters in your area if they will consider it.
The more intricate the razor is, particularly assembly and disassembly, the less likely they will be to take it on.
