Ttaskmaster Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 If you're painting over it - Genklene or Nitro Mors on the plasti-chrome to strip it, scrub it down and rinse the stuff off (for God's sake, wear rubber gloves), then paint as desired. That's what I'd do. Probably quite dangerous, given the chemicals you're working with, so take all precautions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfboy Posted August 15, 2011 Author Share Posted August 15, 2011 was thinking off using that but, 1. was worried it might eat into the plastic, and 2,. would it lift the chrome that has not started to peel yet. i need to get all the plastic chrome off. yes, all the chrome off and lots and lots of matt black paint.lol.

Ttaskmaster Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 I had similar plans, but have not tried it yet myself. I know others have done it, but have not seen the results up close. Perhaps a milder paint-stripper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
