How to "restore" RPM white nylon?

OK, peroxide trick works great on AE nylon blah blah blah...
RPM nylon? Only if you want pickle green parts.
So what do the all knowing members here suggest to brighten up this RPM chassis?
Thanks in advance-

That's not yellow, its just dirty! Warm water and soap and no degreaser at all.

Most of the truck chassis (mine included) are a little different than the semi translucent
really bright white RPM plastics- and clean up great with soap alone. Never perioxide (chalky/ash) and never degreasers (yellow)-

First post

Here are some relatively rare Yokomo 870c white nylon suspension arms. I'm tempted to replace the black arms with these.
As close to Jesus' legendary cup as there is :)

If you want an alternative, I have had these floating around for years, honestly, until today didn’t realize they were that rare….these look like fronts? But happy to chat if you need them.

I will have to pass on your generosity as I will be...

Just PM me Paul, I have a used set and a NIP set.

What part is this again? the arms? or the hubs...?

He needed a set of green rear springs.

First post

Have a front & rear set my truck build and a friend was saying these are rare? Is this true and at what point did they stop landing the white parts?

Last post

Finding them new is tough. Used, not so much, they pop up on ebay somewhat regularly.

First post

How rare are white RPM parts? I have NIP part# 7054 rear arms, unknown part# front arms and part# 7017 steering enhancement kit all in white.

Would these be period correct for a 6030 graphite? As I have mentioned in other posts I have CC front and...

Last post

If you were to decide not to use the 7054 white RPM rear arms I would be interested.

A few people have asked about buying the parts. Something tells me if I got rid of the parts I would regret it later on. Mods, this was not a fishing post I...

First post

Maybe a rookie question, but did RPM make the team/widetrack front arms in white? Not the RPM worlds conversion type, standard wide track.

Last post

I am trying to find a set of rear Andy's arms in white but that full set of RPM arms would work. If you don't move on them Bob, please pass me the info.

Thanks

First post

I wanted to know if RPM made white 10T front and rear body mounts? Not the #7014 body posts, but the actual mounts for the posts. Either adjustable or non-adjustable. I've never seen them in the ads.

Last post

Nope, I wish they did too my friend ....
