Product named " Universal Stone " works great and does not harm the surface.
Turned my brownish WW bright white and they have been white and easy to clean since.
22000 miles and counting....
It's cleaning clay for household but can be used many other places also.
I checked and its available through Amazon if you don't find it from locally.

It's main base is Pumice, a mild abrasive.

Thanks for your help...

I still find that SOS pads work and the product sold by Coker has not helped and is not cheap.

I prefer the SOS pads. I think the Brillo pads are too harsh.

3M rubbing compound with a fine scotch brite pad will brighten them up

I find once they turn yellow nothing works but rustolem painters choice which is water base. Painted it on with a brush, been 5 years and white as ever and this is a driver fall winter spring summer 7 days a week. It seems that this flexes. Still no cracks yet and

if so I give them another coat. I much rather have black but such is life.
see my avitar they are white OK
