Mark Corbin provides this service for a reasonable fee, but you can probably find other companies that can do it as well.  The items need to be stripped of all existing &#8220;chrome&#8221; and that is easily accomplished by soaking them in Bleche Wite Tire Cleaner for a few hours.   After stripping they will look like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8200-scaled.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"669\" data-id=\"5010\" src=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8200-1024x669.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5010\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8200-1024x669.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8200-300x196.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8200-768x502.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8200-1536x1004.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8200-2048x1339.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8200-150x98.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8202-scaled.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"765\" data-id=\"5011\" src=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8202-1024x765.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5011\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8202-1024x765.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8202-300x224.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8202-768x574.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8202-1536x1148.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8202-2048x1531.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8202-150x112.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8201.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"767\" data-id=\"5008\" src=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8201-1024x767.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5008\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8201-1024x767.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8201-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8201-768x575.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8201-1536x1151.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8201-2048x1534.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8201-150x112.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8199-scaled.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"708\" data-id=\"5009\" src=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8199-1024x708.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5009\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8199-1024x708.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8199-300x208.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8199-768x531.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8199-1536x1062.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8199-2048x1417.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_8199-150x104.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that the bowties are black plastic while the balls are grey.

restore the color of the plastic, we will use a technique developed by the antique computer hobby called &#8220;Retro-Brite&#8221;.  This involves coating the plastic with a 40% Hydrogen Peroxide Gel and exposing it to intense Ultraviolet (UV) light.  The combination of peroxide and UV will bleach out the yellow pigment and restore the plastic to its original color.  It should be noted that the plastic may eventually yellow again with age and exposure to UV, but this will not happen quickly and can be minimized by keeping the plastic out of direct sun exposure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Begin by purchasing some 40% Hydrogen Peroxide Hair Gel.  The product pictured here is available from Amazon or various Hair salons.  It is preferred to use a gel over a solution as it will remain on the plastic better.  You will also need some gloves, plastic wrap, brush, and a plastic tray (tray is to protect your deck or patio).  Most important, you need a nice sunny day &#8211; preferable summer sun, as it has the most intense UV rays.  I also like to use a small bowl to hold the gel, but you could also just pour it directly from the bottle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-8 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9138-scaled.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"5052\" src=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9138-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5052\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9138-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9138-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9138-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9138-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9138-113x150.jpeg 113w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9138-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9139-scaled.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"5055\" src=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9139-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5055\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9139-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9139-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9139-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9139-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9139-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9139-150x113.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Using gloves to protect your hands, brush the H2O2 Gel over both sides of each case half &#8211; use liberal amounts to ensure adequate coverage.  Now wrap each half in plastic wrap &#8211; this is to reduce evaporation of the gel while sitting in the hot sun.  Allow the wrapped pieces to sit in the (preferably mid-day) sun for 30-60 minutes, checking occasionally.  When it appears that the plastic has lightened sufficiently, turn the part over and repeat on the other side.  Depending on the direction of the sunlight, you may have to rotate the parts more than once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-9 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9142-scaled.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"5057\" src=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9142-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5057\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9142-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9142-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9142-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9142-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9142-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9142-150x113.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9143-scaled.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"5059\" src=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9143-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5059\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9143-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9143-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9143-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9143-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9143-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9143-150x113.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9148-scaled.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"5058\" src=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9148-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5058\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9148-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9148-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9148-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9148-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9148-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9148-150x113.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9151-scaled.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"5056\" src=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9151-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5056\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9151-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9151-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9151-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9151-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9151-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/stock.corvair.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_9151-150x113.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Remove the plastic, rinse and dry the part.
