- BarneySExplorer IIII painted all the yellowed plastic parts on our trailer about 13 years ago and they still look like new today. Used Krylon plastic paint as already mentioned by posters above.
Painted the two door window frames, entrance handle mounts, stove vent cover, outside elect covers, fridge vent on roof, and any other yellowed plastic parts.
I took the two window frames apart instead of masking. It was very easy and just took a few minutes to remove approximately 8 screws and the frame came right off.
I can't remember now whether I had to use a putty knife but probably not.
Barney - ppineExplorer IIPaint it white or replace it.
- Grit_dogNavigator II^ What Scott said. Mask off or remove the yellowed pieces and rattle can them the color of choice.
It works well. - Charlie_D_Explorer

Good stuff but do not allow it to get on your paint. - cpaulsenExplorerPaint it Krylon Fusion paint
- LynnmorExplorerYou can try wiping the yellow plastic with acetone on a paper towel. Wipe once and toss the paper towel, do not keep rubbing.
- ScottGNomadI painted the white frames on our last TT with Krylon Fusion. The results were beyond what I could have hoped for. Not only did they look like new, they also stayed that way for 5+ years until I traded it in. There were some small cracks in them that the Fusion filled as well.
Scott - IAMICHABODExplorer IIYou can paint it or replace it like I did and got a nice window that you can see out of and is tinted and opens.

Tape it off and paint it black like the rest of the windows?
Other plastic stuff has yellowed too. Like the “marine” speakers.
