Can You Paint uPVC Windows and Doors?

What is uPVC?
Let\’s begin with some basic information about uPVC, regular PVC is actually Polyvinyl Chloride and is standard rigid plastic which is lightweight and strong. You could find it is commonly used anywhere. uPVC is much softer and flexible type of plastic because it is hasn\’t had plasticizers added. Hence the name UPVC – unplasticized polyvinyl chloride.
What Is uPVC Used For?
uPVC comes as standard now in a range of different colours , textures and finishes, including and widely used for windows and doors wood effect finish. uPVC is used as a substitute for wood windows, mainly as mentioned above for external use for uPVC Doors, windows, Conservatories, fascias, soffits and gutters. Most new buildings will be fitted with uPVC double glazed units as standards. People still do used wooden or aluminium windows but it is much more costly than uPVC and they will need more maintenance than uPVC hence why uPVC is the standard material for Doors windows and conservatories.
