Comprehensive Research: Our team dedicates extensive time and effort to research and analyze products, so you can make informed decisions. Buying a specific uPVC cleaner will ensure the job is very easy and ultimately doesn’t waste your time.

Whilst it might seem like a cheap option, regular household cleaner or soap and water just isn’t going to make the cut when it comes to cleaning stains off of uPVC. Industry Connections: We maintain close ties with manufacturers and brands, offering insights into trends and upcoming products. To get the best finish, our top tip would be to work in small areas as opposed to applying this stuff all at once. By spreading the cream over a small area you can ensure you work with it before it fully dries which can be a bit of a pain. Independent: We will tell you exactly what we think of a product and we would never recommend anything we wouldn't use ourselves. With a heavily concentrated formula, we’ve used this beauty countless times over the past few years with clients always amazed at what a little bit of dirt removal can do for the look of their property.

Also effective around the home!

A uPVC cream cleaner is one of our favourite products when it comes to cleaning and restoring the sheen of dirty, worn down gutters and door/window frames . Our go-to brand, like thousands of others in the UK is Everbuild’s cream cleaner. If you’re looking for a solvent uPVC cleaner it’s very likely that you’ve got some tough stains to get rid of. If that’s the case, we’d recommend using Soudal’s PVCu Frame solvent cleaner.

The reason we prefer a good cream cleaner like Everbuild’s is purely down to the fact that when working with these cleaners often, having something that’s solvent free is a big bonus. Especially if it cleans as well as something like Soudal too. Truthfully speaking, Everbuild isn’t quite as powerful as Soudal’s solvent based cleaner but of course has the advantage of having much less odour which makes it more pleasant to work with. Whilst the formula isn’t as powerful as Soudal, that doesn’t mean you can’t get similar results though. In our experience, a little bit of added elbow grease goes a long way with Everbuild’s uPVC cream cleaner and should result in a clean and attractive sheen finish. Having tested this cleaner, we came to the conclusion that it probably wouldn’t match up well against some of the stronger cleaners on this list but it certainly does a good job assuming your stains aren’t already ingrained too much.

As you might notice, uPVC cleaners come in a variety of different forms, one of which is solvent-based. So should you go with solvent or solvent-free cleaner? Well, the choice depends on the state of your uPVC as well as if you’re happy working with the strong odour. Whilst Unger Rub Out does a great job at cleaner uPVC and PVC, it does come with a hefty price tag that some might not be willing to pay. With this in mind, if you’re looking for a cheaper option that can give you performance that is close to Unger Rub Out, we’d recommend Thompson’s uPVC Restorer. The tough formula is fantastic when used on uPVC or PVC and cleans stains, mineral deposits and rust away with ease and without the need to have an array of different tools to help. You simply apply the formula and as it says on the bottle – rub out the stains.

When buying a uPVC cleaner, there’s a few things you should bear in mind to ensure you buy the right product for the job. Water stains as well as nicotine stains pose no problems for this cleaner and as it’s safe to use on indoor uPVC too, would be a good option for any smokers out there. Hands-On Expertise & Collective Knowledge: Our team boasts extensive DIY experience and in-depth knowledge.Our favourite feature of this uPVC restorer is the fact that it doesn’t scratch the surface when applied unlike some other, cheaper brands.

One of our favourite aspects of this product is the spray nozzle which makes application nice and easy. Following the same ‘spray and wipe’ principle as common household cleaners, there’s no learning curve to mastering the use of this cleaning product.
