Yellowing vinyl

[fossyant]

Yeah I know it’s not the be all and end all but I just wondered if there was a trick I haven’t yet tried 😊

Yeh buy a black saddle.

Vinegar of some kind, they used to use it for all sorts of cleaning back in the day.

A bar of Vanish stain remover soap and a nail brush but I agree with the people who say trying to keep a white saddle clean is a waste of time.

It’s not so much it’s dirty it’s got yellowing staining from somebody sticking a carrier bag over it (I don’t know why?!) anyway I just wanted any hints or tips that had worked to try. Honestly , I’m not too precious about it 😊

Hydrogen peroxide looks interesting (I guess you would need to buy some online)

Skip to about 1:50 in the video below.

You'll never restore it to white as UV has faded it. Next it will crack as the plasticiser evaporates out.

I would try something slightly abrasive like T-Cut or Brasso. You have nothing to lose. If it doesn't work dye it black.

Buy a black saddle for the third time. White saddles are just crap, so just live with them looking crap. 👅

And have a dyed black bum on your clothes.
