Could anyone suggest a good cleaning solution for getting old white upvc looking new.I have only used the cream that you buff off,which is obviously time consuming.Obviously this solution must be quite strong to remove stubborn dark stains etc.   cheers  gerry

i have used 'cif' as a relative of my wife works in upvc biz, he recomended to use it, and it has been great, better than some upvc cleaners, its worth a try! not bad for the plastic, i also use mer car wax for lesser cleaning, again it is fine for upvc and leaves more of a shine, messy on the glass but washes off easy trad!!  8)

Flash liquid in a bucket of hot water.

Scrub on.
Leave it to soak if you need to.
Wipe off.
Or even quicker, rinse with a hose if available.

Quick, easy, effective.
Every customer I've done it for has been very grateful.

Rog.

Not worth dragging all that lot out if the customer's got a hose handy.

Anyway, he didn't ask for spots.... ;)
