Default Removing Chromness from Proline Cheyenne's

Someone might have figured this out before. Buy the super cheap steel wool scrubbing pads for the kitchen. You probably already have some. Takes off the plasi-chrome with no effort.

I saw a post somewhere about how to remove it but couldn't find it again. Anyways might work for other plastic wheels. Too lazy to post pictures but trust me it works.

Oh yeah, use water when scrubbing.

Castrol Super Clean works great at stripping chrome plating and you don't risk scuffing the plastic

Easy-Off oven cleaner work very well at getting rid of the chrome from wheels, too.

Bleach will also do the trick. The Castrol super clean is killer! I use that on old built up models off Ebay and that stuff will take almost anything off.
