Got a pink bumbo cheap- but it's clearly been well used as has gone sort of yellowy around the top, front and on the hand holds.

Obviously it's clean to use but it really doesn't look nice at all. I'm pretty sure it's just surface dirt as there are scratch marks in it where the pink shows through, but I'd really like to get it looking better.

So far I've tried all purpose cleaner, white wizard, oxy action powder soaking, bleach and scrubbing.

No dice.

Does anyone have any other suggestions?

What about that weird JML magic eraser?

Can you get that in wilkos?

You can get that JML magic eraser in Wilko's or PoundStretcher etc.

Try making a paste out of whitening toothpaste (not gel, it has to be the white stuff) and bicarbonate of soda. Use a scouring pad and a or of elbow grease. It gets burns off work tops so it might work. Try it in a small area first just incase it damages the plastic.

You can buy covers for them if nothing works.
