craig;

Yes, the become a right mess after a time, don't they?

The buttons can be pried out of the stocks and cleaned up first with some
400 or 600 wet-or-dry sandpaper, and then buffed to a chrome-like finish on
a buffing wheel. I did mine three years ago and they still look like they
are chrome plated.

> Does anyone have an idea of how to either restore or refinish in some
clean manner the small steel caps at the ends of my MGB turn signal and
wiper levers?  They're dull and appear like smooth rusted steel.  I dont
even know what they looked like when new - were they plated or painted?  Can
they be removed without damaging the whole assembly?  I have them off the
car right now (along with everything else) and I want them to look better
when it's all reassembled.
