it's not part of aging, it's due to environmental factors (dampness for one). Bleach works kind of, especially the gel variety. But it's *selective*, meaning it'll bleach a patch here and there, and leave it splotchy looking sometimes. You can try repeating and see if all of it goes eventually. You'll want to season the plastic after you rinsed thoroughly also because bleach does in effect burn the plastic, and might leave it brittle. Maybe vegetable oils or some other strange concoctions out there. Check w/craft stores or even hardware stores. Or google it.
