Combination of vinegar and water

Vinegar is a great way to remove yellowing from plastic.

To prepare the solution, mix equal parts vinegar and water in a large container. Then, using a soft cloth or sponge, apply the solution to the plastic window sill and leave for a few minutes.

Next, you need to rinse the surface with plain water and wait for it to dry. This method can be repeated several times until you achieve the desired effect.
