Flossie Posted June 3, 2016 On my VW Camper and Mini Cooper Creator sets some of the white bricks are starting to yellow. There is no pattern to which bricks are yellowing and it is starting to look like a patchwork. So what do I do to return the gleaming whiteness to the bricks. I cannot afford to replace them and I've heard that there is a ways of washing them that almost bleaches them white again. Any help would be gratefully received.

AmperZand Posted June 3, 2016 (edited) http://www.eurobrick...topic=7167&st=0 http://www.eurobrick...00#entry2058714 Leave the yellowed parts in a solution of hydrogen peroxide and Vanish Oxy Action Crystal White in a clear, glass jar (no lid!) in direct sunlight for a few hours. That should restore them to their original whiteness. Then rinse in water and dry. Edited June 3, 2016 by AmperZand Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have some older Space Police 3 sets with many parts that are in high need of de-yellowing before assembling the sets again, and quite a lot of them have stickers on them.

You can use parts with stickers in the solution as it will not affect the stuckers :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
