Chrome Plating Exhaust Systems

In regard to chrome plating exhaust systems, can a standard triple plate: copper, nickel, chrome be used without any blistering of the copper since copper melts at a much lower temperature than what the exhaust temperature will be. Approximately 1300 degrees.

Thanks for any and all help.

A 1300 °C exhaust temperature would create many problems. Hope it's 1300 °F.
