I was donig the AE mod today. Everything went smoothly until it was time to remove the tape. As i removed the tape, some of the chrome finish went along with it. I used Scotch painters masking tape. Now i have parts of my headlight that are stripped of the chrome finish. Is there anything i can do about this?

 

reverse the process and repaint the chrome

 

well, short of buying the motostorm chrome paint, buy new lights.

 

I heard of this happening to somebody else too. Did you put the tape on when the lenses were "fresh" out of the oven? If so maybe the heat made the adhesive on the tape stick more. It's too bad that happened! I hope you get it fixed all right.

 

Yes i think thats what happend. What is motostorm chrome paint and where can i get it?

wouldn't the paint melt right off because it doesnt say its a hi-temp paint

 

Yeah, it even says warning keep away from flames or heat lol. Is there anything i can pick up locally? I want to get it done by tuesday.

 

it wont be any different from regular paint once dry. did you mess up both headlights?
i have a 97-99 pass. light.

 

how far will 1oz go?
and does it come in a rattle can?

 

It needs to be high heat. I found a can of chrome spray paint at strauss but its only good up to 120 degrees. I rather fix it then spend the money on a new set.
Is there a product similar to the black engine enamel that i used to do the ae mod thats chrome?
