Got lazy finding a topic but what chemical removes chrome off parts? I've got a few chrome parts I want them removed.
Easy Off?
I can't remember but something call Purple Clean or similar product also works. What is the name of it?

Re: What removes chrome
I’ve used household bleach, full strength. It removes all of it.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Cool to watch. Enough bleach to cover the part and sit back. One minute it is there, then poof.

Re: What removes chrome
I've used Windex window cleaner myself. Comes off in a blink.

Just don’t mix the two. Ever. Windex contains ammonia, while bleach contains chlorine, combine the two and you create a poison gas.Duke Maddog wrote:I've used Windex window cleaner myself. Comes off in a blink.

Oh, never mix those. Ever. Causes a chemical reaction that releases chlorine gas. Not human friendly at all.

Now why would I want to mix those two together?
