The material I have will quite literally put a very fine film of aluminum and only aluminum onto the surface.
How long will it take and how many would I do? Don't know, never did one. I would be happy to do one for free. The "paint" does cost $350 a quart and it is almost all solvent so it doesn't go far... I would need to see how much material it takes. As for time required. It will take about 30 min. to apply several light coats. It will also take several minutes to mask the front plate.
