Nice one Bruce!
Also, Windex works for removing chrome from plastic.
I'd be wary of brake fluid; I had that actually melt some roof supports on a car I was trying to strip.
I have used Easy Off oven cleaner to strip enamel paints with no ill effects to the plastic.

Ever look at a kit on the bench and forget where you left off. Well maybe not so much this one. Kinda obvious that I was stripping the paint off the bottom. Gonna get back to that Wednesday. Need to see where I am with the other parts of this.
