Has anyone attempted to bleach a yellowed console by leaving it out in the sun? How did it work out?

I did, the first couple days were like a miracle but then it took many more days for less visible effect

Eventually (months) it started to revert a little but I heard it's the same with other methods

My famicom stopped looking like a smoker's lungs but didn't get all they wat to white. Pretty soon I stopped fucking around and now I do it inside with some hair cream and a sous vide stick. You see some good results with the sun method on youtube. Check the forecast for max uv and a clear blue sky, and I bet you could do just as well as anyone

Why did the sun remove the soul?

Not quite yet. I do have the tools to get it done, but I am waiting for summertime.

Yup. I got my Dreamcast to whiten as well. Summer time will be perfect.

Does this make the plastic more or less brittle than retrobrighting?

I did it for a week, results were alright. Definitely an improvement but nothing as good as the real methods.
