Crazy question - Yellowed gloss paint

[danoid]

Some areas in our house don’t get a great deal of sunlight so the gloss has yellowed.

Last year I moved some things about exposing the gloss to sunlight and it went white again.

I’m guessing with the UV rays caused this to change.

My crazy question is, if I bought a UV bulb would this whiten the gloss in a quicker process?

I’ve looked online and can’t seem to find anyone else doing this, so either i’m a genius or a joker

You should just be able shine an artificial light source onto it to turn it back white again don't know about just UV though , you should try it and let us know!

I certainly will try the UV bulb idea, worth a punt for sure

I do not know which frequency of UV you need.
