Keeping exterior plastic

What is everyone using to keep their exterior white plastic white? Same for the skylight bubble from yellowing? Will 303 keep from yellowing?

Someone recommended Krylon Fusion for plastic. I haven't tried it yet.

That's paint, I think he meant a product to apply that either cleans or protects or both.

Thanks. I was referring to a protectant. Hoping I don't have to paint in the future.

I don't have any white but I use the 303 on my exterior (gray) and it looks like so far so good (3rd summer). The skylight......maybe use 303 to see if it works. I was also looking at some stuff at the auto store the other evening that cleans faded/yellowed headlight housings, or, you might just replace it if it gets too bad. I just had a new one put on mine (they cracked it sealing the roof - dealership paid for) and I think the skylight cost less than $30 (not including labor).
