Does anyone know how long this process is. I just got a set of white, and I'm wondering if I should make a keyboard cover.

But, if the process is >5 years, then I could just be lazy.

Just soak them in peroxide in the sun with a spoon of Oxyclean if you notice yellowing.

See retrobrite.

Cool stuff, The site seems to only mention ABS,, Does this work for PBT?

Unlike ABS, PBT have good UV resistance, therefore it should be quite a long time.

I read some more of the yellowing stuff. Seems like a keyboard cover is the only way to go.
