Could you NiB treat a “whole gun”?

I have a bald gun.  Cheeley aggressive grip and frame, Warwick Tactical slide, KKM hybrid barrel.  
 

Time to finish it and I love the bare metal look.  It seems the closest treatment out there is Nickel Boron, and I’ve seen AR BCGs done in NiB.  Any reason you couldn’t NiB a whole gun?

I don't see why not. Glock did NiB slides for a while. They were great to troll people that said, "Get yourself a Glock and lose that nickel-plated sissy pistol."

Fair warning, NiB tarnishes pretty quickly. If anything I'd think hard chrome would be the most common option of coatings on a 2011 to keep it looking like it does now.
