Hi,

Since you are still into the Apple II-IIgs and have been for a long Time. I 
thought I would let you know that the Hydrogen Peroxide in greater 
concentrations work in removing the yellow from the cases.

Finally have proof it works. This is something that I was looking for of 
proof that it works. This should work with other plastics (mac cases) that 
have aged from the same causes. It seems Seems to affect/bother any paint, 
not the plastic. A 10% should/might work better. Will have to read all of 
the posts.

Any case should be cleaned of any dirt and grease or oils to help it come 
out even. Painted logos should be removed. Metal that can rust should be 
removed. Not sure how strong the UV light is that used. As I said I will 
have to read and read all the posts.
