Cleaning UPVC double glazed window frames?

Apr 22, 2004 7 Replies

Hi,



This may not be the right group for cleaning related issues but maybe just maybe...



The kitchen window frame /UPVC/ in the hose I just bought has not been cleaned for years /gone yellow and sticky/. I think this is the last "original feature" left after refurbishment work. I would like to know what is the best method of cleaning the frame without damaging it? Thanks in advance Rafal


Buy some UPVC cleaner. Available most DIY places.

To keep nice and to polish use a VERY SMALL amount of silicone polish.

I'd try white spirit, which doesn't usually attack plastics.

UPVC cleaner is available for £2.99 from your local Betterware agent :)

I know.. I've just got some and it works a treat :)

My architect says use Jif (or is it Cif) on it!

Thanks a lot, out shopping now

We use cream cleaner designed for plastic baths. Doesn't seem to do any harm.
