@nop Dipped the key in a highly concentrated solution of sodium carbonate in a sealed plastic box for food, wrapped with a strip of UV leds (5 watts), and further wrapped with a towel to keep the box slightly warm. Cook for 12 hours.
The plastic is slightly opaque, probably polypropylene or polyethylene. I don't know how to tell how well it transmits UV light at 390-400nm. I've read that common glass blocks UV more than most plastics.
