Title: 47 series 62 conv
Post by: VandalRon on October 04, 2020, 10:31:51 AM
I need 2 chrome wiper escutcheons. Anyone know where they can be got? Mine appear to have been re-chromed at least once and have pits all over them.

If you can't find them your chances of removing the pits are good. Have them stripped, work them to death with files, abrasives, sand-paper and send back to the chrome shop to have them apply lots of copper. The copper fills the pits. Tell them not to chrome, just copper..then have a look and see if you're satisfied. The chrome shops don't take out all those tiny dents in hubcaps, bumpers, etc. they just keep laying on the copper until they get the finish they want.

The parts the wiper arms are attached to? I have a couple sets i believe.
