@Bluetooth,

 

Check out Can you repaint bathroom taps? and @lifestylebymari's amazing Spray painted tapware. I believe this method could be applied to any hardware. The trick will be scratching that chrome with sandpaper so the paint has something to bind to.

 

If you give it a go, make sure you take some before and after photos. I'm sure our members will be thrilled to see your results.

@Bluetooth 

Thank you.

Regarding the shower screen I did not dismantle. I use plastic sheet to screen around it before spraying. If I was going to this again, I will paint it as it would give a much smoother finish.
