Fill it up with Coke. Let it sit for a couple of days. The phosphoric acid in Coke can dissovle human teeth.
Warning: it might turn it more brown than yellow.

Thanks for the washer bottle discussion...Got me thinking again..Were the factory bottles ever that white? I replaced my old one due to the yellow tint and used a GM white bottle...I'm starting to like the yellow tint more and more..I know the yellow tinted one was correct but was it aged or did it just "come that way"...???

The washer solvent reservoirs were white. Here's one that is untouched and just starting to yellow at the center molding seam.

Man if you guys need yellow washer bottles just ask your friends up north. I don't know if it was the cold or what but yellow is the common color. I cannot find white ones.That one in the picture is white to us.
