if it does go 2 the hobby shop and get a sheet of chrome foil and recover it,chrome foil is used to add chrome to model car trim

That's really good to know. Some great suggestions on this thread!

I would clean the reflector to a "brilliant shine" and the spray it with Plasti Dip to seal it off for the Evap O soak. Then peel the Plasti Dip off when it ready to assemble.

Fiberglass gel coat polish is your friend....

First i would replace / repair the missing battery contact so the battery will stay in . Second, I wouldn't soak a complete light in any corrosive or any other liquid for fear of dissolving the fiber grounding shoulder washers. I personally would sand , glass bead or other media blast it, and mask off the reflector .

Just do it. Coat everything and throw caution to the wind, like a teenage.
take pictures as it smokes and bubbles.
you Don’t have much to loose but lots to gain

Got a old flashlight you could rob the reflector out of to test it?

Sounds easy but it's hard to apply it on a curved surface without ripples or seams.
