Jake Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Hi Wayne The brown stuff is what's under the chrome finish so you won't be able to just clean the brown stuff off. Your only option is to repaint them really. You need to soften the black sealant by putting the lights in the oven for 10 or 15 mins. Make sure no part of the light is touching the sides or back of the oven though, otherwise you'll melt the plastic (like I did once) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mawby Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Originally posted by Jake (like I did once) Me too! D'oh. I picked up some chrome paint from "The Range" and it did the trick nicely of covering up the marks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mawby Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Originally posted by supradibbs what u mean the range Well it's a bug store near to me which sells loads of stuff pretty cheap. I thought they were a big chain but as they don't appear in a google search I guess they're not. You should be able to get the paint from Halfords or a craft shop.
