Will Castrol Super Clean...
remove chrome from chrome plated pieces? On my Impala that I am "STILL" working on the rear bumper looks like shit. The chrome is discolored and not smooth. Will CSC fix my problem. What steps do I need to follow to remove it?

I'm not sure it will work as i have never used the stuff before.
The Chevelle i done i used a modelling knife to scrape the chrome off as it just flakes off so easy. Then sandpaper with 600 then 1200 grit. Then if you can get some BMF......re-do the bumpers and then polish them up to get a good shine again. This is what they should end up looking like....

a soak in chlorine laundry bleach will remove chrome but the clear lacquer base coat under the chrome needs to be removed with a paint remover
Mike PS:always wear rubber gloves and eye protection when working with chemicals
