Worth mentioning - after fiddling with restoring my wiper bezel and never being happy with the results I sent it off to “Corvette Specialties of Maryland, Inc.” for restoration. They did a great job for a great price. I believe they can quote all parts as well. Worth looking in to.

I have always used a little lacquer thinner on a rag to wipe off the paint.
