56 Window Crank Resto

I would like to get the interior window crank handles refinished. Specifically rechrome, however I can not seem to figure out how to remove the black plastic ****. Is there a secret to its removal? Thanks

They reproduce them. That'll be much cheaper than rechroming

They are probably all made by the same manufacturer. Look at midfifty, carpenter, or mid West early Ford.

I ended up just using a little elbow grease and they actually cleaned up fairly well, so will keep them vintage.
