Prepping chrome effect trim for paint

[21TonyK]

Wait to paint some plastic chrome effect trim pieces. I rubbed down with 240 but still shiny smooth so tried 180, its dull but I get the feeling paint will just flake off still. Planning to use a normal primer, base and laquer.

Anything other than a thorough 180 rub down needed?

Bleach. It's how you get the chrome off plastic model kits.

Primer for plastic will do a proper job.
