Default white interior cleaning

Does anyone have a good trick or technique to offer for cleaning an original white interior? Nice original survivor car that the seats and door panels have yellowed some.
Thanks,
Tim

I have used Wesley's Bleach-White - the whitewall tire cleaner, diluted. But be very careful with getting it on anything else and make sure you use a lot of water to clean it all off the seats.

Many years ago, when I had a white, interior, the only thing available that would really clean it was Spray 9. There are probably other good products out there today.

Westleys is great stuff for tires but probably a little aggressive for vinyl interior. Simple Green and Magic Eraser would be a much safer bet (IMO).
