Peroxyding white MIP parts?

Post by Lonestar »

Hi Folks,

has anyone tried H2O2 on white MIP plastics? Do they react like AE's nylons, or more like RPM's?

I have some steering bellcranks that need a bit of TLC...

Thank you!

I think the mip bellcranks are probably ok. They are glass filled nylon. I'd probably do the simple green and healthy scrub first though.

Hi Joe

thanks for the info. I would have thought that they would sustain the H2O2 bath indeed, the material does look similar to AE for sure.

They have yellowed considerably. I will clean them first of course, but that won't be enough!

Thanks!

Yeah the set I have is darker than the associated parts. I kinda think that's how they were.
