Looking to see what people have done with whelen heads out of warranty where the chrome material flakes off. Got a freedom corner practically all black plastic. Wonder if anyone use a reflective tape to try and restore them somewhat.

I just went through this with several 911 Galaxy restores - and we know the effects that the salt has on the chrome plating and oxidation of the aluminum.

I did a total tear down of these bars - and refinished everything in black with spray truck bed coating - other than the several day dry time - worked perfectly....and durable.
