Where he used a ozone generator with some limited success. He basically says the classic method of retro bright using peroxide is the best method. I am not disputing this, as it obviously works, but I think in a lot of cases the original plastic colour is not white to start with. While he says it worked were did not work as well as peroxides, I am not so sure as we do not actually want to bleach the colour totally out which peroxides seems to do. So they could may well be possible the ozone solution is actually closer to the original colour. This is what I wanted to investigate.
Some may know I did some experiments with peroxides a year or two ago, though I gave up when I brought a large container of liquid where I left the mouse in the sun the basically two days and it hardly did anything. The peroxides creams seem to work the best but as people know, it is messy and you need a bit of practice to get it all correct. But again, I think this actually takes the colour out of the plastic as well.
So I got myself a ozone generator... Which thankfully just arrived.. As it is a little bit sunny today..

So I flattened the back to remove all the air, then pumps the bag full of ozone, and inserted the top half of the mouse, then left the ozone generator running for 30 seconds more then I sealed the bag and left it in the sun..
Hopefully the sun will last a couple of hours today.. But I doubt it..
So we shall see this does anything at all.... To be continued....
