    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I was wondering if any one had any ideas on to to clean up these chrome pieces? One of them is fairly clear and reflective but the other is cloudy. These are plastic pieces from my side panels.

I'm not sure if those are mylar or some kind of plastic, mine has 'em too. I've not tried it but when I need some polish for my windshield I'll probably give that a try, makes sense you're gonna want an extremely fine abrasive.
 
I have not tried to polish plastic-chrome pieces like that. LAB3 probably has the best idea with some very fine abrasive.

That is not real chrome-- it is plasti-chrome -
Use plastic polish / cleaner / wax --
OR Plasti-Dip them to a new color
 
Thanks guys, did a quick wet sand with some 1500 grit and it worked perfectly!
the dull one ended up looking better then the other so i ended up doing both, now they both look awesome!
 
I've always found those "SOS" Mini scrub pads work will... For wheel rims too.
