The nice thing about doing this is that it is EASY to strip it and redo, if you don't like the results (BEFORE you bake it). If the Porcelaine paint is a bit thick, you may need to mix in a little "thinner" (another bottle of Porcelaine product). The paint you actually use needs to "flow" off the tip of your brush. If it does not want to do this easily, you need to thin it a bit.

A "good job" of doing this should show NO uneven sections in the paint. You might need to use the tip of an Xacto knife to shave some 'over-fill' that laps up the chrome edging. If so, wait till almost dry (before baking) and trim the excess off. Then bake.

The baking temps/times may differ between different colors of Porcelaine paint. If so, go with the LOWEST temp in the group.
