How do I FIX Oxidized Plastic/ Resin Chair ?

I pressure wash ours and it works with no downsides. If it did not work I would paint them. Tossing stuff into the landfill is irresponsible and the mark of extreme laziness though typical of our generation.

Ya. X2
And wouldn't it be nice if the 'manufacturer' did it BEFORE we bought them so they didn't go yellow!!

But then again, how would all those camping stores that sell all those pieces doomed to go yellow make any money? :B

Thanks everyone.
I used my "303" on the chairs and it worked pretty good.
Good enough, that I am happy.
I would recommend anyone should try it.

Also thanks for the recommendations of the "fusion paint".
I do have some yellowed plastic on my MH.
So guess I will have to try it.
Never have bought this type of paint.

I picked up an old TT a neighbor was selling REAL cheap.
All and everything plastic was a nasty yellow making the TT look
really nasty. Vent for fridge, vent for stove, door window trim. All the vent trim on the ceiling of the inside, even all the little door latches for the bays, etc.

I spray painted all the yellow plastic with Krylon and the TT looked
brand new......I sold it for twice what I paid for it!!

They will look just like new even better.
Made for plastic. This stuff is nothing short of a miracle for plastic.
I even did the trim around outside light on the MH. Anything that turns yellow on an RV can be painted with this stuff and it lasts forever.

Here is the before and after pics.
Before:Light green all washed out from Florida sun.

After: Dark green and shiny like new after spray job!

My vote is too toss it. We had a couple that had oxidized, spent the $5 for the fusion paint and time to paint. One lasted about 2 days before breaking and the second maybe a month. I think that the plastic had weakened from the sun.

I've had good luck with Fusion spray paint (for plastic). My concern would be the spray paint would be worth more than the chair.

X2 - we have revived lots of outdoor plastic with this. Sending to the landfill is our very last option.
