Yellowing plastic sink

[harrycovert]

My campervan plastic sink in the bathroom is starting to go yellow .Anyone got a solution ?
Epoxy paint chemical treatment?

Worth a try, but you'll probably find it won’t last unfortunately.

If the van’s not too old, a new sink would probably be a better bet, though it’ll go the same way in time

Depending on the plastic type, putting it into direct sunlight will whiten it. Other than that, replace with a stainless steel version

The van is 20 years old and changing the sink would be difficult.Would a UV light have any effect?

If it’s 20 years old it’s done very well. Not sure if a uv light would help though as sunlight is made of a complete spectrum and it’s the strength of that that can bleach things. Personally I wouldn’t worry too much about it. Perhaps fit a more yellow interior light so it looks more natural rather than faded
