You can only anodize aluminium, Doh.
Nipples and spokes are generally steel(of various types), some nipples are aluminium for larger spokes.
Brown is the best spoke colour, doesn't show the dirt.
Perhaps a metal plating shop would be best to talk to, provided it doesn't weaken spoke or affect thread size.
My biggest concern would be whether it would stay on.
