A number of years ago I looked online about how to whiten plastic toy figures such as Star Wars, GI Joe, etc. NOT ornaments which are a different kind of plastic. Plastic containers are also made of a different kind of plastic than the ornaments.
It might be wise to buy a cheap ornament that needs to be whitened and experiment on that before attempting to whiten a cherished ornament.
Perhaps someone would ask HMK or one of the artists about whitening the ornaments.
