Also, some PVC windowsleaves have rubber edging that leaves spots. This is absolutely correct. Some windows have painted aluminium inserts but it looks like uPVC. It can be very deceptive. By the time you can see milking it has to be pretty serious, a lot of times it is happening but you don't see itWhen ever you get spots check the top of the frame by rubbing with your finger and checking for white coming off.Also, look at the pattern of the spots. You can usually see its running down so its drip related. Or its splashing down from above having come off the brickwork or sills above.Spots don't appear out of thin air. As I have learned through many such problems there is always a reason for it. Hot water speeds up this removal process IMO. Problem windows...use cold water.
