Rumor has it the headlamp shell gets HOT!  I wonder if it gets hot enough to need a high temperature paint?

I painted a a chrome plated plastic headlight bucket on my kawasaki and for some reason the chrome split and lifted from the plastic in a couple of places.  I don't know why it did that.

I ended up stripping the chrome off by soaking it in bleach, and the remaining copper layer with ammonia.
