Today I soaked some Transformers accessories in an H2O2 bath for the whole day - dawn to dusk. Pretty impressed with the results, especially on Powermaster Optimus Prime's cannons.

Wow! They’re some good results!

Hey Gok, I'd be interested to see if there is any degradation of metallic parts (or the rubber parts for that matter) over the next couple months. Most people seem to shy away from submersing whole figures due to the expected reactions with the Hydrogen peroxide.
These are great comparison pics, I'm very surprised how well the Powermaster Prime cannon has come up. I will definitely be having a go at this. Thanks Gok.
I still function.....................while killing threads. ;-)
This thread has been resurrected bigtime! I remember approx 7 years ago when peroxide became common fodder that it was seen by toy collectors as the holy grail of findings....

Ironhide does have painted decoes and there was some discolouration on them.
(I also have Car Robot Ox, so RiD Ironhide is a more expendable figure that I used as a guinea pig)
I have bought H2O2 cream to try to use on figures to only apply the H2O2 to select parts, but then the weather in Sydney got gloomy so there haven't been any days with long enough sunlight for me to test it on. Might have to wait till next summer. Any advice on what to do for parts that I don't want brightened but also want to protect from sun damage? Would regular sun block work to protect those parts?
