Well looks like I'm gonna try the peroxide mix bath. Found some 20 volume peroxide at a beauty supply store. Also just ordered my repro stickers from Cobrastickers. I've acquired all the missing parts (except microphone) and even bought the FSS Keel Haul. I'll start over hauling this carrier soon! I'll be sure to post before and after pics.

Started my peroxide bath for my Flagg last night. I used the formula mentioned on the previous page - 2 gal 20 vol H2O2, 6 gal distiller water, and 4 scoops of oxyclean. I put the mixture in a clear tub, placed most of the white plastic parts in the tub and let sit for 8 hours in the sun. Man are the results amazing!! Take a look at the picture. You can see the top of the tower where the 99 stickers were and the original color of the plastic compared to the yellowed plastic. Beside (left) of the white 99 area is a piece of the Flagg that sat in the bath for 8 hours. Look how close it matches the original color!! Currently have the tower roof in the bath today. Hoping for similar results, oh and I added 3 more scoops of oxyclean this morning.

I had a dream that I found my childhood Flagg and was setting it up on a table in my Joe Room. I remember it was missing some parts, but had all the deck plates, tower, bow and stern but was missing a side part, which is impossible because it was just a plastic strip to simulate the side of the ship. I hope to acquire a Flagg in the next year...

This is definitely my dream project since getting back into collecting Joes. The thing is awesome, but is gonna take up a lot of space!

Got my Flagg last night. Spent the day cleaning and assembling her. Parts look good enough I don't think I need to do the peroxide bath.
