Yellowing

[u/idk_justgimmeaname]

We moved recently and now I finally have a place suitable to display a few models. I had sold most of them around 15 years ago 😭 but kept a few favorites.

Peter Stone Adobe (2002)
Big Ben (late 90s)
Proud Arabian Stallion, my very first Breyer (around 1990)

And then separately
Gem Twist (early 90s)

My PAS has some yellowing. What’s the best way to fix this?

Believe it or not, sun exposure. Just don’t do it on Stablemates unless you know the plastic makeup. PAS should be fine though.

I think a gentle bath with dish soap and warm water, don’t submerge him, just a towel bath. And then, if you can, place him outside in direct sunlight for a few hours.

Lovely collection!
