Is there any way besides removing caulk that has yellowed to get it
white again? I think it was silicone that I used in two bathrooms. It
has yellowed in both. Thanks for any advice.


I've never had good silicone caulk yellow, at least the GE bathroom and
sink product. Whatever it is, it is best to razor blade off the yellowed
stuff if you don't wish to live with it, and get true silicone (non
paintable) waterproof sealer/caulk designed for bath applications, and
reapply to a perfectly clean and dry surface.


Never had GE silicone turned yellow either or hard on various
installations in 30 years. The only problem I had with GE is the shelf
life is too short and too hard to squeeze out of the tube where most of
the caulk blow out on the other end of the tube. Happens all the time -
need to keep and eye on the expiration date.
