I wondered why the plastic wrap, and thought it was to keep the peroxide from evaporating too quickly to work over the time desired. You answered this in a later comment (and it was as I thought), and that comment encouraged you to explain what you were doing and why, not just show it. I concur with the encouragement to explain since it will allow us viewers to modify as needed to fit our context. Thanks for taking the time to show this!

But to many of us that's like "Don't press the red button". 😂 Or it's just, "Okay you say that but is there a good reason?" Anyway.... The kids snuck out went to fhe West Dock one night. (Duh.) And they played on the dock a while and everything was fine. Then they jumped in the water. And when they went to climb back up, there were THOUSANDS of venomous spiders underneath the dock and all over the ladder. If the counselors had just told them WHY, no kid would've gone near it. But because they didn't, 2 boys died and 3 others were treated for necrotic spider bites.

Peroxide breaks down into harmless stuff after brief exposure to light and air. That's why it's kept in thick, often dark colored plastic bottles. Absolutely nothing to worry about once it's done its thing.

[@theinspector1023]

I'm impressed. Now to find an application!

[@roypiltdown5083]

professional chemist here - 12% peroxide is really dangerous to get on you, so make sure you wear gloves & eye protection (the stuff they sell at the grocery is much less concentrated). still trying to figure out the chemistry of this - the poster didnt mention what kind of plastic it was, but yellowing is typically an oxidation reaction, and it seems like peroxide (a strong oxidizer) would only make the problem worse.

[@MasterT-n2c]

Yes, in some case. But good if you have no other option.🙂

[@bitingmidge4981]

Failed year 10 chemistry, but here's what the internet says - Hydrogen peroxide bleaches in the same way as chlorine, it oxidises chromophones, essentially taking the electrons that hold atoms together causing molecules that cause staining to fall apart. (I've been using it for years on old plastic TV cases and radios)

[@DanakarEndeel]

I have a Retrobright box setup with 12% Hydrogenperoxide and UV light installed in a plastic box that has its insides coated with reflective foil (to spread the UV light even more). That also seems to work very nicely to remove yellowing from items (especially old white 80's toys that did not use UV-resistant plastics like nowadays). Ofcourse the downside is that the items you've cleaned are still made of non-UV-resistant material and would likely yellow again over time. Additionally the process may make the item more brittle; especially with repeated use. Then again, a nice white toy M.A.S.K. car or Starcom Starmax looks much better than a yellowed version imo. 🙂

[@MasterT-n2c]

Very good set up you have, here I've just used the sun and it is free. Avoid to getting yellow again you can use UV stabilized varnish.🙂

[@DanakarEndeel]

@@MasterT-n2c Heh, yeah I could have used the sun as well but oftentimes we have pretty bad weather so when I saw some videos about building a Retrobright box I went straight to work on it. I already had a suitable plastic box with a lid as well as some clear glass containers (to put the peroxide and yellowed items in); so I only needed a roll of reflective sticky foil, some UV led strips, and ofcourse the 12% Hydrogenperoxide. So fortunately the costs remained reasonable. 🙂 Thanks a lot for the tip regarding UV stabilized varnish by the way! 👍 I'll have to take a look and see if I can get me some of that; especially for my white vehicles that seem to suffer the most from this yellowing effect. Hopefully a thin coat of that varnish would help in avoiding the yellowing effect.

Does this work on colored plastic tail lights?

[@MasterT-n2c]

I haven't try that yet but possibly. Let me know if it does work.🙂

SUN? I live in the UK and that's something we don't see very often! 😂

[@MasterT-n2c]

You can use UV light instead or you can come here to Australia.🙂

Thanks for sharing

Would this work with black ink on white plastic light switch? I've tried hydrogen peroxide, 409 cleaner, Ajax dish soap, nothing works.

[@MasterT-n2c]

Maybe but I'm not sure.

[@MasterT-n2c]

Methylated spirit does work on ink.

[@twk4223]

What type of peroxide you used? Please be specific!

[@MasterT-n2c]

You can see that in the video I can't tell too much about it. I've bought that from ebay. 🙂 This is the cream form not liquid.

How long did you leave the plastic in the sun?

[@MasterT-n2c]

This one was out for three days. 🙂
