if anybody is concerned about the peroxide being to harsh or something of that nature, you could try an ordinary bathroom mould spray. I've bleached a few things by accident with this stuff, just saying.

My concern with the peroxide is that there isn't enough higher concentration of it easily available in Australia
You guys still mucking around with this stuff? I moved to using napisan type presoak product years ago. Oxy action creates hydrogen peroxide. This is from the rc community.
Want to rejuvenate and preserve rubber? Auto trans fluid.
The active ingredient of those "oxy-action' cleaners is Sodium Percarbonate. Content levels vary among the various brands and some of them add perfumes, surfectants and anti-clumping agents.
It breaks down into Hydrogen Peroxide (which is what you're after) and Sodium Carbonate (a common water softener). I haven't heard much about it's use for whitening plastics but it's usually the go to cleaner for homebrewers.
Yea, pretty easy. Just add warm to hot water, not boiling, more to the warm side, a bunch of the product and the stuff you want to treat in a container and leave for a while. :)
If you want to, you don't need to. Results won't be as good at first as just using peroxide due to lower concentrations, but it's a lot easier to do, and you can pick up the product in any store that sells washing detergents. Just look at the active ingredient amounts on each package. Last time I bought some was just coles homebrand stuff.
