John Tooker has put up an excellent guide to taking care of the yellowing of your white Lego brick utilizing hydrogen peroxide and a dash of the ever famous Oxy-clean. It is a problem that has plagued Lego modelers and old computer equipment collectors for decades, over time and with light exposure, this stuff starts looking gross.

Quick Steps

Put pieces into a plastic/glass tub

Lightly dust pieces with Oxy-clean

Submerge pieces in hydrogen peroxide (3% strength)

Place in sunlight (optional)

Once a day, add peroxide, stir if needed

Rinse on the 5th day, or when white enough
