If they were white from the start they wont be chrome underneeth, only the center of the bars will be chrome.

Have you tried panel wipes? My mate takes paint off panels with them. Dunno just a thought

hi deano they were chrome as the bits of primer that have come off show lovely minty chrome underneath that's why im reluctant to scratch it ...tried thinners/panel wipe too ....think I'll give stripper another go  ???
