Message: [QUOTE="TruxtonTatsujin, post: 384606, member: 2574"] It's possible that the yellowing can resurface after retrobrighting. It only removes the surface layer that has risen to the top. The yellowing is caused by a chemical reaction after all. There's no guarantee that the process that caused the yellowing in the first place just stops. But not all plastics are the same, and sometimes it will stay white after retrobrighting. How do I know this? because I've done this more than once. Streaking happens if you apply the cream unevenly. The blame falls on the person who applied it. It also needs more than one passthrough. He never said how long it sat for or how many times he applied it. The more yellowed the plastic is, the more brittle it gets. This has nothing to do with retrobrighting. I've had a SNES turn solid yellow and basically shatter before I had a chance to do anything to it. [/QUOTE]
