upvc Windows.

[hallj1]

Anyone know something to remove stains from white upvc windows,without scratching the surface. The stain is coming from the rubber seals which are about 25 years old and I suspect perishing slightly.

If the stain is simply on the surface you could use Cif. But I suspect that the stains will have penetrated the UPVC, in which case nothing will remove them. A coat of appropriate paint may be the only way to improve the appearance.

Nothing will.

Hi as the others have said it may not be possible to remove it, but you could always go into B&Q or similar and buy UPVC cleaner. I have used it on mine and it worked. Worth a try as it only costs a few quid. Paint on UPVC should really only be used as a last resort.

If the glass and the frames are otherwise OK I would suggest getting the rubber seals replaced. I'm sure a small local double-glazing company would be glad of the work and it would extend the life of the windows.

If the stain is on the surface, try T-Cut.

just use a mild solution of water and bleach to clean the rubber (DO NOT SCRUB)
and for the frames just use something similar to Jiff?
