opellane is on a distinguished road
Garage
Chromed Washer Bottle

I cleaned the washer bottle first.
I soaked my washer bottles, shock tower caps and brake fluid container, in very hot water with bleach/ vinegar for about 1/2 hour.
Then Dryed and blew out all the water. turned almost white again. I know a guy who will chrome plate plastic, I gave him two bottles to chrome for me w/ tops, and some other stuff.
They came out great, the only thing is that the engine heat turn the color bronze (gold), but matches w/ yellow car. The bottles look real good too if you paint them gloss black.
Hope that helps

Mike
