Any one have ideas to whiten the yellowed plastic of the original reservoirs, I have tried the hydrogen peroxide (12%) and UV method with limited success.
Any proven ideas most welcome.

Hi,
Like yourself I tried all sorts of things including, don’t laugh, denture cleaner and tooth whitener with limited success. The best result was putting them in the dishwasher.

Hi Richard, yes I’d read that and despite following the instructions my particular surface bromine was reluctant to “mobilise” or “migrate”.
There was a pic on here of my attempts a few years ago. They are on the car now, not white but better than they were. More importantly they don’t leak.
