(IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Does anyone know how to restore the reflective surface of the tail light housing after the coating has oxidized? Is there a way to remove the old chrome coating without destroying the plastic backing other than with elbow grease and fine steel wool, followed by a chrome or silver paint? Is there a solvent that will remove the old surface without destroying the plastic base?
