Tried it. It works. Good if you know someone with one of those UV plant lamps.
But if you're goin to paint it, Krylon Fusion for plasics. Get a color coat and a gloss coat. No primer needed but do clean the surface. And if you have one available scratch up the exterior with a scuff/scratch pad.

Arseen:
If you read the link, it tells that certain old plastics turn yellow or brown because of sunlight.
But the coloring can be reversed with hydroperocside, certain washing powder and sunlight (or UV light.)

Arseen:
The result would be opposite to what you want. ;D
