Despite the plating in modern kits being pretty good these days, there are still reasons why you might want to strip it. But don’t spend hours or days doing this. With the right product, the chrome effect can usually be stripped in a matter of minutes.
NOTE: For the chrome in Salvinos JR Model kits, you'll need to use Hydrochloric Acid in place of the compounds mentioned in this video and it will take a few days (depending on the concentration of the solution). Of course, there are significant safety hazards to navigate with all these chemicals.

I've got some motorcycle indicators that look like chrome plastic. I've tried soaking these in various bleaches and nothing removes the chrome look!! What am I doing wrong ??? I've also tried oven cleaners, 2 different types, also zero effect to the chrome look !!

Perhaps it is "real" chrome that has been used? Salvinos kits use automotive chrome and I've found that does not react with oven cleaners etc, but can be removed with acid. Not sure how you'll go with your indicators, but I've done a video on it >> ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2MHJiWjHECQ.html

Is this safe for ABS plastic?

I'd assume so, but not sure - try some on a piece of exposed plastic and see what happens. It's fine on the usual styrene that's used for the majority of model kits.
