I've have good experiences with leaving the covers in a solution of water and some chlorine bleach (don't know if that's the correct term - it's the type you would use to clean your bathroom with) over night. After that I simply rinsed them with a good amount of water and then they looked like new again if I remember correctly.

Well I for one never had success with bleach, the things turning yellow again after a few months.

Ok, so it have some effect then? Will try soaking it in some bleach this weekend. Have also seen that one can use the same "chemicals" you use to bleach hair.

Amonia or peroxyde. Yes it has some effect, albeit a temporary one.
