There are probably a TON of chrome hubcaps and interior pieces at a local junkyard you could buy super cheap and try it out yourself.. Then you could perfect your technique at the same time.

Interesting idea though.. I'd love to see pics too.

I have used the VHT on some aluminum parts. Works good. You have to clear over it to keep it shiny.

We used that in our woodshop class a while back on some aluminum. Worked pretty well, wasn't quite as shiny as I had hoped.
