Chrome Grill
Submitted by s1ckdrag0ns
1. Take grill off at the 6 points. Use a long screw driver from the top to get to the ones that are at the bottom.
2. Take some turtle wax rubbing compound and start rubbing. It takes a little elbow grease and your going to be rubbing for awhile. You can use any kind of rubbing compound, I just chose this type. If you have a dremel tool or something like it, get some polishing tips for it and use that. It cuts time in half. Just BE CAREFUL NOT TO GRAZE ANY OTHER PART OF THE DREMEL BIT AGAINST THE CHROME!!!! The scratches will not come out.
3. Then you’re your all done with the big areas, you can use a razor blade to get into the tight spots. Just make the blade perpendicular to the surface and let the blade do the work.
4. After all the paint has been removed from the spots that you want, take a rag and put a little bit of compound on it and go over everything chrome again. This is to make sure you got everything off. And finally, when you’re all done, take the garden hose and spray all of the excess compound off. If you don’t spray it off and try to wipe it off, you’re going to remove the paint in places where you don’t want to remove it. Here are some pics of the finished product.
5. When your ready to put the grill back on, put the little tabs in the grill first, then snap it back onto your MS.
