I don't know about that bleach advice lol. I've never had much luck with reversing the yellowing on fans, someone else would need to chime in if they've found something.

Clean the blades with a wood cleaner.
Clean the motor with any kitchen cleaner like 409.
A lot of guys use Windex.

Dish soap and water never hurt anything, but make sure you dry it well, dont let the water sit.

Depends whats on the fan.. I've had luck even spraying contact cleaner in areas before to remove stuff. I found contact cleaner is good to remove ink without damaging the finish or a price label that's hard to get off, but that's good for small things.. I try dish soap and water first, and then on to something else if it doesn't do the trick..

Simple Green, especially in its concentrated form, is EXCELLENT for cleaning just about everything. The filth comes off instantly.

Agreed with Andrew, for general cleaning Simple Green is fantastic. I don't know that it will remove your yellowing though, I guess it depends if it's something on the fan itself or actual change in the finishes due to age.
