several yrs ago I had a tub surround installed. where the tub meets the walls is caulked. i used car polish originally to "save" the walls from hard water stains...so far, so good, but the caulking (in spots) has turned yellow and I don't know how to clean it. any ideas???

I don't know that there is anything that will make the caulk white again [other than paint] If the caulk is in good shape, a thin coat of new caulk over the old should make it look new again.
