Chain Driven 0 Posted August 2, 2011 Oven cleaner mate, spray the foam (watch for the fumes) and then wash with water, 10 minutes and all back to bare plastic. Can't remember the brand but it's an orange/green can. Jerome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

amica 2 Posted August 2, 2011 Bleach works for me and may be easier to come by. You need to leave it to soak for half hour or so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin_Mc 411 Posted August 10, 2011 i used Betterware foaming oven cleaner and it stripped chrome wheels and chrome palting from the inside of Ford badges, sprayed it on and left it to soak and the chrome disintegrated in about an hour Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dimblum 1 Posted August 11, 2011 There used to be a product called Strip-A-Kit (paint and chrome remover for plastic models) that would remove chrome instantly without hurting the plastic underneath.. I've used it before and it works amazingly well.. Unfortunately it seems the product was discontinued I wonder if there are any replacement products for it now?

Max Power 5 Posted August 12, 2011 I have heard Acetone works. It is also good for removing ca glue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
