Dechrome Package

Dechrome Package for Plastic Trim

Over time, chrome elements on a car inevitably lose their original look and can even develop corrosion. Replacing them with new parts is an option, but it’s costly—not just because of the price of the part itself, but also due to the need for skilled professionals who can remove and install the new piece without damaging the vehicle. This process takes both time and money.

In some cases, car owners simply dislike chrome accents and want to get rid of them, considering them outdated or unappealing. Regardless of the reason, dechroming is the ideal solution.

Brooklands Detailing offers professional dechroming using chemical etching. Our specialists carefully disassemble the part, remove the chrome using a chemical solution, then apply primer, paint it in the desired color, and finish with a protective clear coat. For elements that are difficult to remove—such as roof rails or lower bumper sections—we use high-quality vinyl wrapping instead.

Painting a chrome part is a more time-consuming and costly process, but it provides significant benefits: it preserves the car’s original paintwork, prevents damage to the body, and offers long-term protection against rust and chips.
