Thalenk Tundra Snow Yellowing

Hello folks!

Title says it all. I've had a set of Thaelenk Tundra for many years, which I purchased second hand. After all this time, the snow tiles are becoming yellowed (don't eat the yellow snow!!)

Has anyone else encountered this? Any good means of rectifying it?

I myself am from a non-smoking household, but no guarantee on where this set was before I got it.

Re: Thalenk Tundra Snow Yellowing

I have four sets of Tundra, about half of the snow tiles have yellowed to varying degrees. I haven't tried to rectify it, but I am also curious if anyone has.

Re: Thalenk Tundra Snow Yellowing

Yep, yellowing on some here too. I'm guessing spray paint is the only way to 'fix' it.

Re: Thalenk Tundra Snow Yellowing

Never tried it, but there is a process some have used on yellowed plastics called retrobright. It involves peroxide and oxyclean.

Re: Thalenk Tundra Snow Yellowing

If you are on the Facebook group, Joecar has looked into some methods. The link below includes pictures, and some of the discussion is in the spoiler.

Re: Thalenk Tundra Snow Yellowing

I remember that some snow tiles came with some of the small expansion packs, and those tiles came yellowed in the first place.

Re: Thalenk Tundra Snow Yellowing

Yeah, I think many people who were collecting the small expansions back in the day have a ton of two-hex snow tiles, which were packaged to the exclusion of any other kind of terrain for a long while. In any case, while most of my snow is still pretty white, yellowing snow is unfortunately a common problem.
