It may be total BS, but I've read that immersing the part/soaking for a week in Coca-Cola will remove chrome and/or rust...

I'm looking at various sites that recommend ways to remove the chrome...Sounds like it can be done at home...or more properly, in a well ventilated garage...outside...with goggles, respirator, and rubber gloves...

I do Parkerizing in my kitchen, but I don't recommend it...but then, I'm a bachelor, and my stove is a tool, not an appliance...
