The best results I have actually had just using the sun - no peroxide or anything. Just clean the part well and put it in the sun for a month or two until it looks good. I had a few experiences with white streaks using peroxide (mainly when experimenting with stronger solutions), but the sun-only method always served me well, although it does require some patience.

Not sure if it is less prone to reyellowing, but I had parts I did that way about 4-5 years ago, and they still look quite good to this day. One of them (a C64C) was very bad and had white blemishes from stickers where it was less yellowed but it all evened out and those blemishes have not reappeared.
