(Sole Brite) Spray Gel : Restores Yellowed Plastic (16oz)

Purchased this to brighten out a yellowing manufactured home tub & shower enclosure. Our home was built in 2012 and sold in 2013. It became ours in 2015. We keep a shower curtain partially close over the shower/tub but that front corner gets extra UV exposure from a window and had started to turn yellowy dingy. Though hubs did not notice, it bothered me and I searched for a fix.I put on a "rubber glove" on one hand and dipped my hand in the retrobrite tub and smoothed a thin layer over the area I wanted to brighten. I then wrapped it in saran wrap and put a grow light that I had on hand on it for 7 hours. The results were impressive to me. Next week when my husband is at work I will do up the front of the shower enclosure and inside the front of the tub where it also has taken on the yellow dinginess.So for tub areas that are yellow because of a UV chemical reaction on a 'plastic' tub. This product is a winner. It met my expectations and was worth the price paid. My shower, though not finished, looks cleaner already. It just makes me happier to look at it.I then was making cheesecake one day and notice my grandma's older hand mixer that I used was yellowing from sun exposure from our last house. I figured ... why not? I put a layer of retrobrite on, wrapped it in saran-wrap, put it in a ziplock bag and set it outside for 2 hours. It started to rain so I brought it inside and sat it under a UV light for 3 more hours. The results were crazy amazing! I get almost giddy when I see these results. It makes me want to find yellowing plastic just so I can try it some more.No regrets at all.OH! and no fumes to speak of and I am usually very sensitive to fumes. No issues when I accidentally got some on my hands.

Works great. Had to whiten up my Stormtrooper suit with brown discoloration. Probably from age or sunlight. I tried everything recommended on the interweb. Nothing worked until I read about this. Perfect solution.

I rubbed plastic by this cleaner and left for 24 hours. Unfortunately, nothing changed. It doesn’t work for plastic. But my blue sponge became white

Works fantastic to de yellow some old figures I've had on my shelves.. Or hidden in a box in the case of the grey turned brown! Omg that thing was fugly as hell before I treated it!Doesn't (usually) wreck the paint or the clear parts even!I'm so stoked it worked! I've tried multiple things with no luck in the past.I waited till I'd tried it a few times before writing this. And I could not actually be happier with the product honestly for my needs.Only issues I've truly had are it doesn't really spray, so probably better to spread with a brush cause it is pretty thick say.And it did cause some rusting on screws. Even cracked the paint on one piece weirdly enough. But only one piece and not enough to be a major concern to me.Otherwise it's been absolutely amazing.One major warning is definitely follow the gloves on requirement! I got a little in my finger tips while sealing the bags and omfg it dried out and wrecked my skin almost instantly! Stung like a nasty bug bite too. So don't mess around with that!Says it can be used under a regular lamp.. It did not work for me even with a CFL or black light bulb. I don't have a straight uv one to try tho.

So it didn’t completely take out the yellow but if I did it a second time it probably would. My Silhouette was on a table in front of a window. So it got yellowed in certain sections and when the cover was lifted it looked awful. I looked for something that would remove the yellow and found this. Super easy to use. I just put in on the areas that needed it, covered the area with seran wrap and placed it in the sun. The sun worked better than the led lights I bought to use with this, so you don’t need them at all. Just make sure the piece your cleaning is in the sun for a few hours. I did one whole afternoon and left it there without adding more solution and let it sit there the next afternoon as well. Looks great but I’ll probably do it one more time just to get rid of the last of the yellow.

Great for whitening old yellow plastic. I use this on a Mac SE/30 that had yellow and it came out perfectly white again.

I had to whiten up some old plastic that had yellowed. The common technique is to submerge the plastic in hydrogen peroxide and place in the sunlight or under UV light. I had a piece of plastic that was larger than my pan, so I tried this spray as a substitute. It worked, but made the plastic splotchy. The spray from the nozzle is not a mist, but more of a targeted spray. Wherever the blob of gel landed, the plastic was a different white than the rest of the plastic. I tried spreading it around which helped, but it never really worked as well and as uniformly as hydrogen peroxide. I will try it on some smaller pieces, but for large surfaces it didn't work well.

No joy. Maybe my application plastic not compatable (clear plastic light cover had yellowed). Did nothing in my application.
