Firstly we need to explain what is UPVC painting and UPVC spraying? UPVC Paint is a specialised paint that is sprayed on plastic. It is available in a variety of colours and can be used to coat or cover PVC, PVCu, (UPVC), and many other types of hard or hardened plastic, including ABS, polycarbonate, acrylic, and polyester powder coatings.
Regular paint won’t adhere to the smooth, shiny surface of plastic very well since it expands, and as a result, the paint will eventually peel and split. This problem has been remedied with the use of UPVC paint, which will actually chemically bond with the plastic to create a full protective covering as well as a new colour and appearance. The UPVC paint covering, which is now flexible, will protect the UPVC frames from heat and UV radiation.
We hardly ever receive requests for completely new UPVC frames to be sprayed because clients may simply choose the colour of the frames they wanted in the first place.
UPVC paint keeps its colour without noticeably fading because it is so UV resistant and colour stable.
One very important aspect is that for the first 6 to 12 months after installation, we advise avoiding painting brand-new UPVC. This is due to the fact that after UPVC frames are built, certain resins may be released over the course of the first few months, similar to how you must wait for plaster to completely dry before painting a wall.
