Alot of the Rust-Oleum is oil base...
Great job!! I've been looking for a nice chrome paint for the tail light bezels that I 3D printed using ABS. I hope it works for those, yours look awesome.

Rust-O-leum has synthetic fish oil. Ever seen a rusty fish?

nice work, And if you really want to strip it clean without the hard scrubbing try Easy off "yellow" top original oven claener, spray it.bag it and come back an hour or 2 later and it looks Clean as a whistle

2part spray paint. similar to spectra chrome on this set. (darn company went out of business on me though.) I'm looking at other options.

get rid of all the ugly stuff and doesn't hurt the plastic at all. works good on removing anodizing on aluminum for repairs too!
This is an old post, but I can attest that the Easy-Off is a great idea. Just did my instrument bezel and it worked great. Before, I had been letting the plastic pieces I was restoring soak in 99% isopropyl alcohol... it works, but not nearly as good or fast as the Easy-Off.

I use it to strip anodizing off of aluminum trim, dash bezels and pretty much any chrome plates plastics. 30 years and haven't cooked a part yet,
