For only two hours it seems to have done a very good job. It's not perfect as there are a couple of areas that weren't whitened as much, but I think I can live with it and doubt anyone will notice since it on the upright and not the flat area. I might try a Magic Eraser on those spots and see if it helps.
I'm attaching before and after pics.

Why is it that only I fail to take "before" pictures of stuff? AMAZING difference! Go easy with the magic eraser - it is fine abrasive embedded in a polyurethane sponge. Think of a magic eraser as 3000 grit sandpaper.
Cheers,
