Has anyone had experience repairing chrome scratches, pits, rust damage with a method other than rechroming the part? I discovered this cheap electro plating tool which may be worth a try.

I have not, but was intriqued by a method described by Jan A in the following thread:

Works a treat. Had some poor excuses for bumpers last year. Brought them up a treat. You need loads of tinfoil though, and tough fingertips :-)

I just take some off my special hat I use to call the mothership. It hasn't affected the hat's performance yet. :)

They only sell aluminum foil at my grocery store...
Seriously this time: Tin foil is just the word a lot of people use to describe aluminum (aluminium) foil.
Okay, that's cool. I didn't want to assume and end up wasting time with something that wasn't going to do any good.
I knew a guy who referred to aluminum foil as tinafoil.
