Chrome Removal?
Does anyone have any tips on quickly removing chrome?
I usually just sand the parts down and then paint them, but this takes too long.
Are there any chemicals that will quickly remove chrome?
Thanks!

Yep I was sand blasting a car and just threw these on the hood. You may blast through though. I used icing on two places then sanded all the parts with 200 grit

Beadblasting may work better on plastic.
