You can see that most of the outward facing chrome is still intact. This is because there is a lacquer that is applied to the plastic that helps the chrome plating adhere better. Unfortunately, this lacquer and the chrome result in some very thick coverage and a great loss of detail. Many modelers will dechrome parts only to rechrome them with a thinner plating or chrome paint to regain that detail. Something a bit stronger is needed to remove the chrome and the supporting lacquer, but not harm the plastic underneath.
