Clear phone cases, like Native Union&apos;s (Re)Clear Case for iPhone 16, are popular for showcasing your device&apos;s design. However, users may notice these cases turning yellow over time. Let&apos;s explore why this happens, how to prevent it, and how to clean a yellowing case.Why Do Clear Cases Turn Yellow?The primary culprit behind the yellowing of clear cases is the material used&#x2014;thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU). TPU is prone to discoloration due to:<ul data-end="837" data-start="458"><li data-end="583" data-start="458">UV Light Exposure: Ultraviolet rays from the sun can break down the chemical bonds in TPU, leading to a yellowish tint.</li><li data-end="696" data-start="585">Heat: High temperatures can accelerate the degradation process of TPU, causing it to yellow more quickly.</li><li data-end="837" data-start="698">Oils and Sweat: Natural oils from your skin and sweat can transfer to the case, reacting with the material and causing discoloration.</li></ul>Even though some cases, like the (Re)Clear Case, are treated with anti-yellowing coatings, these measures can only slow down the process but may not prevent it entirely.How to Prevent YellowingWhile it&apos;s challenging to stop yellowing completely, you can take steps to delay it:<ol data-end="1671" data-start="1126"><li data-end="1228" data-start="1126">Limit Sun Exposure: Keep your phone out of direct sunlight when possible to reduce UV exposure.</li><li data-end="1361" data-start="1230">Avoid Excessive Heat: Keep your phone away from high temperatures, including hot cars or prolonged exposure to heat sources.</li><li data-end="1548" data-start="1363">Regular Cleaning: Wipe your case regularly to remove oils and sweat. Use a soft, slightly damp cloth with mild soap, ensuring the case is dry before reattaching it to your phone.</li></ol>How to Clean a Yellowing CaseIf your case has already started to yellow, try the following cleaning method:<ul data-end="2256" data-start="1789"><li data-end="1958" data-start="1789">Use a soft, slightly damp cloth with mild soap, ensuring the case is dry before reattaching it to your phone.</li></ul>Remember, this method may not restore the case to its original clarity but can help improve its appearance. Regular maintenance and mindful usage are key to keeping your clear case looking better for longer.Hope these methods help you keep your phone case clean and clear! &#x1F60A;
