**Plastic Chairs Impossible to See? Here’s How to Whiten Them Perfectly!**
With the right approach and some simple household items, you can bring your plastic chairs back to life and have them looking fresh and clean in no time.
### Why Do Plastic Chairs Turn Yellow?
1. **Sun Exposure**: UV rays from the sun can break down the chemical bonds in the plastic, causing it to discolor.
2. **Dirt and Grime**: Everyday use can cause dirt, oil, and other substances to accumulate on plastic, leaving behind stubborn stains.
3. **Environmental Factors**: Exposure to moisture, mold, and mildew can also contribute to yellowing and discoloration.
Luckily, these yellowed chairs are not beyond help. With the right methods, you can easily restore their bright, clean look.
#### 1. **Start with a Good Cleaning**
Before diving into whitening techniques, it’s essential to give your plastic chairs a thorough cleaning to remove dirt, dust, and grime.
**How to Clean:**
– Mix warm water with a few drops of mild dish soap.
– Dip a soft cloth or sponge into the soapy water and gently scrub the entire surface of the chair, focusing on areas with visible dirt or stains.
– If the chair is particularly dirty or has stubborn stains, you can make a paste by mixing baking soda and water. Apply the paste to the stains and scrub with a sponge.
– Rinse with clean water and let the chairs dry completely before proceeding to whitening.
**Materials Needed:**

– After the waiting period, scrub the area gently with a brush or sponge.
– Spray or pour white vinegar over the paste to activate the fizzing reaction, which helps lift stains from the plastic.
