I got a gallon size ziplock bag of old rattle traps--a gift to me from my FIL to paint. First things first...how do I strip them clean? And since chrome/black chrome/blue is off the table, what patterns should I work on?

Why is chrome off the table? It can be done if you want chrome! Just gotta know the proper way to do them.

So what sort of material is used for the holographic look. I know some blanks come that way, but I thought I read some were applying it too

Holographic foils are available from several places...probably would be pretty easy to apply to a slick sided rattle trap. BC has made some informative posts on the process.
