Ok so the case on my Dell Optiplex GS+ is in bad shape its very yellow im going to see how close to white I can get it.
Cause of yellowing:
Most plastic was mixed with bromine a flame retardant chemical, the chemical would rise to the surface when expose to high amounts of uv light.
The fix:
A strong amount of hydrogen peroxide and uv light to activate the bromine, let sit for few hours and rinse and repeat if still yellow.
Tools used:
Philips screw driver (to pull all the guts out of case)
40 Volume salon hair creme (developer kind)
Black light
