Jerac Cooks Lego

And that's the trick.

 

Tumeric.

 

Take a standard bag of tumeric, should be about 15 or 20 grams of it. Drop it into 2L of water, boil till it dissolves. Turn off the heat, stir a bit so the foam dissipates.

 

Dunk your trans-clear pieces carefully so no bubbles form, leave for 2-3 minutes, then stir. Repeat 3 times, take the pieces out, rinse with warm water and compare with original trans yellow piece. If the color is not strong enough, reheat the water to boiling and repeat entire process.

 

The small canopy on top is original lego trans-yellow, and larger two are dyed.

 

Greens don't work as well; center one is original, left was trans-blue (the one from spyrius line) and right was trans-light-blue.

 

Yellows though... to me - as good as new!
