Either strip them using nitromors, and polish using autosol for shiny but high maintenance look. Or strip using nitromors, polish using 600 grade wet and dry  and paint using primer, primer, paint, paint and lacquer if you want from the Plastikote range, available dead cheap at wilkinsons or slightly less cheap at b&q.
They all look shoddy at this age, tbh. |

Anywhere - homebase, b+q, wilkinsons, etc.
Top tips: don't let it on your skin, keep it somewhere cool. It is nasty nasty stuff, and tbh I am surprised you can buy it in as largea tin as you can. But by heck it works. |
