Default Cleaning Lampshades

I have white lampshades that turned brown from smoking in the house.
Can they be made white again & how to do it?


Place lampshade on smoker's head. Spray lampshade with heavy duty
motel-grade cleaner from a janitorial supply house. Allow to soak for
half an hour in the hot sun, rotating frequently. Wash with garden
hose (resist temptation to use pressure washer). Allow to sun dry an
additional hour. Observe reults and repeat as necessary until all
traces of nicotine addiction have been removed. G
