Hard Chroming and tight tolerances

Hi,

I have a 1911 Gold Cup with minor rust pitting on the slide. I would like to have it hard chromed but am wondering if the already-tight tolerances would allow the extractor, firing pin stop and other parts will still fit as they should afterward.

Does anyone know how thick a hard chrome plating will be and whether that will affect the fit of tight parts?

Thanks.
