It guides you on rejuvenating a yellowed keyboard to make it look nearly new.
To correct discoloration, coat the plastic with hydrogen peroxide, which is effective for plastics that have yellowed completely rather than just in spots. Use a plastic bag filled with enough hydrogen peroxide to submerge the plastic piece. Place the plastic into the bag, then expose it to direct sunlight. After 3-4 hours, rinse it with clean water. Hydrogen peroxide is available at drugstores or large retailers.
If you're working with a plastic device, ensure all non-plastic components are removed before immersion in hydrogen peroxide.
An old toothbrush can be used to apply hydrogen peroxide to the plastic if needed.
Retrobright is a method that uses hydrogen peroxide to eliminate yellowing from ABS plastics.
