                        I've got the issue, in fact, that is how the subject came up over on another forum. The owner tried putting the rocket in the sun, but it didn't help any.

                        There is an article on how to handle old decals in this month issue of FSM.  Maybe you should have a look.  I know you can get yellow decals back to normal by exposing them to UV rays of the sun but I don't know for already installed ones.
                        No matter where you go ....... there you are.

                        I have a friend who builds model rockets that is trying to fix decals that yellowed on an old one. Do you guys know of anyway to get out the yellowing without removing the decals? Decals for old rockets are much less abundant than they are for plastic models Big Smile [:D] Thanks guys!
