How To Whiten Old Plastic Parts
Hello Folks, its another beautiful day here in Texas USA. So I decide whiten my old Castrol Supra wheels... the lazy children way! You wonder what is the lazy children way? Well, if you ever seen my old HOW-TO Guide you will see the LCW is also stands for the LAZY CHEAP WAY! Anyways, I'm pretty sure I'm not the first who done this, but it is still nice to this pictorial for me own record~

OMG that's such a good idea!! I always considered chlorine bleach off limits, but hadn't considered the much milder H2O2. Great thinking VS!

You know, I might just have to try this on my yellowed scorcher windows... If this works you will be my new hero!

I don't need the wheels, not at that price
, but I can't see a change in the whiteness of the Castrol wheel. 
Nice work and it was a nice day here. I hope I can get up to your area soon.

Brother VS, I wanted to post the same thing!
My GF is a doctor of chemistry and she pointed it out to me. What solution are you using? I'm using 30% and eventually thining it with distilled water. I'm afraid of damage using a high concentration.

Do you need to dilute the Hydrogen Peroxide? And do you know whether it make the wheels brittle? Cheers for sharing

Thanks gents for the comments! Brother Brother Dante and WW-nut: I just pour stright without adding water. During the 8 hour stint I checked about every hour and find no damage to the plastic part. The wheel is about 10 years old but after the whiten it seems fine, no loss of suface details either. I will check back about a week to see there are any damages.

Nice. Wonder if it would work on nylon parts like old RC10 white parts?

Holy cow! I need to try this on my old Brat wheels. I had to paint them to get them from looking brown. Time to strip and clean!
