I am still trying to clean up the wheels myself and may resort to painting them in "country style" to match the bodywork instead of having them rechromed. The tyres are probably good for a lot more miles yet and if I have the wheels rechromed the tyres will have to be removed and will probaby need replacing. I really want to keep the pram as original as possible. So it could be that I will just have the handles rechromed and hopefully clean up the rest. The handles are very pitted with rust and this is the only thing to do with them I feel.
A friend suggested I try to sand down the chrome to make it smooth enough to paint so I might try that if all efforts to clean off the rust fail.
