Thanks! No, no repaint. I was lucky that the paint was in good shape under the preservative layer of grime. I used a straight blade to scrape the old yellowing clear coat off of the chrome, but I couldn’t do the same for the painted parts without removing the paint as well. Just a deep clean and a wax.
