Setup, Compatibility & Care
Preparation: Before application, ensure all uPVC surfaces are thoroughly cleaned to remove dirt, grease, and mildew. A specialist uPVC cleaner is recommended. Lightly abrading the surface with fine-grit sandpaper can improve adhesion, especially on very smooth or glossy finishes. Wipe down with a tack cloth after sanding.
Compatibility: This paint is specifically designed for use on unplasticized polyvinyl chloride (uPVC). It is not suitable for painted or treated uPVC, plastics other than uPVC, or other building materials like wood, metal, or masonry.
Application: Apply using a high-quality synthetic brush or a microfibre roller. Two thin coats are generally recommended for best results, allowing adequate drying time between coats as per manufacturer instructions.
Care: Clean painted surfaces gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, which can damage the finish. Regular light cleaning will help maintain the paint's appearance.
