Okay, the hydrogen peroxide trick isn't going to work on any of those, except the white parts of the Sharpfire and certain parts of the Rough Cut. For those blasters, you can paint the hydrogen peroxide solution onto just the white parts, and leave them in the sun for 15 minutes. It may take a couple tries.

For the rest, there are basically 3 options. The "right" way is to use Penetrating Dye to recolor the plastic. The problem is it's expensive and hard to use. But that's what the pros like Drac use to recolor blasters. You wipe it on, let it set, then wipe off the excess. The color goes right into the plastic.

The second option is to just repaint the ugly parts with Krylon. Again, it's going to be expensive, time consuming, and difficult to do. And unless you're artistic, you're going to lose a lot of the detailing when you use spray paint.

And lastly, the "poor man's" option is to use various color Sharpies to recolor the damaged sections. Sometimes it isn't pretty, but kids across the NIC have been doing it for years. Sometimes with pretty good results. I have done small touch-ups with orange Sharpie, and it worked pretty well.
