So, since my other thread for replacing the exhaust with a straight pipe didn't go so well for me
I plan on now de-chroming the exhaust and painting it flat black with heat resistant paint. The problem here is de-chroming. I have a few body shops nearby but I'm not sure if they would de-chrome the exhaust. Has anyone done this by sand blasting or doing a chemical bath yourself?
Along with the chrome, there is a nickel plating underneath, as well right? The nickel plating doesn't come off in the chemical bath for the chrome, but would sand blasting this work?
Thanks for any feedback. I have a day of other painting to do today
