    Really glad they were able to find it! I’d have thought it’d be in Mexico.

    Shit! I already bought the paint and clear. How'd you sand the chrome off?

    You dont necessarily need to remove the chrome. It's almost like a really thick metal tape. Just sand the living shit out of it to rough up the surface. That will give you better adhesion. The problem is when you try to paint a smooth, glass like surface the paint has nothing to grip to.

    same. if yours isn't peeling already just a nice sanding should do it. use a sand block and then go back over it with 300 grit.

    All are welcome!

    @mbmack1 yeah man, I don't plan to remove the chrome entirely as I know that'd be a big pita. I think I've got 180 up to 400 grits to do before a filler primer and then painting. Debating on wet sanding afterwards depending on the orange peel.
