      I also used a softscrub cleaner like "AJAX with bleach" to get rid of scratches and afterwards the regular bleach.
      Both units ,one grey the other one white, turned out almost like new.

      like I mentioned in the video this is possible as an alternative to sunlight but raises the cost and is a pretty cumbersome. 🙂

      True but it’s also the activator for the chemical to restore the yellowing.
