Very good upload, really helpful. Ive been into slot cars on and off for a few year's and having found an old Audi Quattro the other day, stripped it and cleaned it up. Thank's to you I got the rear grille piece under the spoiler back in properly, so all good now.. Many Thank's Hope to see some more video's from you soon.

I bet a few seconds in an ultrasonic cleaner or under a karcher would get the mould off!

Hi sorry for the late reply, yes I submerged all parts. I’ll put a video together showing some restoration works to a formula one. Do you have a year in mind ?

Wow, I have never seen this. I have an old martini 911 where the white has turned yellow / brownish, do you know any way to fix that other than a repaint?

Hi, I will experiment with a few ideas I’ll let you know if any of them work as I have a few cars with the same problem, the main Cause of this is direct sunlight causes the white cars to yellow but using common bleach submerged 48 to 72hrs and then washed with warm soapy water can sometimes solve this but I will test it out one of my cars and record it and I’ll post results on KZitem.

@@topvolts81 it will be interesting how that works. The car has martini tampo so I have been scared to mess that up though I sourced some repro decals. I painted a rothmans 962 which had turned beige, was a fun project. Yes sunlight is the issue, nature hates shelf queens maybe??

@@markwheatley5191 Try soaking it in some peroxide for a few days. But you'll need spare decals first, just in case...
