i used a dremel

if u are gonna paint it, the point of sanding is to allow the paint to "grab" the plastic. It will last much longer and look better.

Yup, just sand it to make the surface rough, then paint it.

but if ur just tryin to take it off, you can buy that aircraft paint stripper to make it all bubbly. It works on paint iono about the chrome.
