does anyone know how to remove the yellowing on my plastic on my robot i know about using bleach or white spray paint but here is the problem.like on a R2-D2 robot it has silver paint,blue paint ,plus other colors,plus in very small detail.but yet on sme pieces have yellowing of the plastic so can paint or bleach
so is bleach or painting it and then repaint the details with the right colors after it dries the only way or just leave it alone i did see info on a thread after i wrote this about retrobright ,will try it and post results i will have to borrow my lepard gecko lizard UV lamp
yes your are right,,need special chemical to remove it lie retrobright or salon cleaner,witch uses the same stuff as retrobright i seperate my parts in boxes ,plastic bags and 35 mm canisters or pill boxes and label them mostly dont use a camera ,it takes time to set it up plus have no problem putting it back together without it i guess from, many many years of building and taking robots apart,it gets super easy for me
