Thanks for the tips. I use T cut for really dirty stained frames. Customers are always happy with result.

Thanks Mike. The main difference between tcut and this is this leaves more of a glossy finish.

[@lordlucan3706]

@@Darren-Green The main differenc is T cut is half the price of Rub Out.

[@tonycarrington4426]

good job, although i use Bond-it Upvc Restorer myself gives a great shine with a light buff and a lot cheaper, there are lots of cream restorers out there, be sure to check that they don`t contain bleach (many do) they will discolour the Upvc, regarding the green backed scourers a customer checked with me whether i was going to use them as he swore someone prior to me caused very minute scratches on his sills on inspection there were indeed very minute scratches, i obviously have no way of knowing how they got there, and have never used the green backed ones anyway as i have always use the white back scourers, they sell these in most supermarkets next to the green backed ones there described as Non Scratch, always best just to be on the safe side. enjoy watching your videos tony

[@trevhib]

I was amazed when I saw green scourers being used, they can definitely leave small scratches all over softer surfaces and I had heard UPVC doors/windows have a protective coating that is easily removed with the wrong product(s). I'm no expert and I can't vouch for the information about the coating but having scratched various surfaces with green scourers I'd definitely try the white scourers first, or even just a cloth with either Bond-it or RubOut.

[@billdavies6463]

I beleive that the green scourers contain abrasive, but as a mechanical engineer, I can tell you that plastics are abrasive in their own right.

[@ianburg9905]

Thanks for the video. This method of cleaning is actually quite a good one. But for anyone doing it like this I'd recommend making sure not to press too hard with the scouring pad and use plenty of dish washing soap which cleans and lubricates as you clean. It's a good idea too to rinse off the soapy water because dish washing soap contains lots of salt. Salt attacks the surface of the plastic making it oxidise and making it go dull very quickly. There are several types of UPVC mix used for windows and doors and some are more affected than others. The early doors and windows oxidise more easily. Later ones are more resistant to this effect. You will all have seen the dull effect on especially white upvc. When you rub it with a damp cloth white colouring actually comes off onto your cloth. That is the oxidisation. I haven't used the Rubout product but it will no doubt be good at restoring the gloss finish. A nice video producing good results. Thanks.

[@Darren-Green]

Thanks for the educational information Ian and yes you're totally correct about rinsing off dish soaps.

[@chrbx13]

Does dishoap dull every plastic surface types like plastic tables and rubber seal and car interiors? Or is it just upvc? What can we use to clean plastic instead for rubber, car interiors, upvc doors and plastic furniture?

Great vid yet again, I personally like to use magic erasers to clean up grubby pvc. Give it all a good rinse with a soapy cloth then just rub down with a wet eraser and it comes up a treat, customers love the chemical free aspect.

Yes but with how far one bottle of Rub-Out will go it will actually work out cheaper than magic sponges in the end. I also find the sponges deteriorate too quickly.

All sounds good😁. I was always taught to start at the top so that the dirt goes down and that you don't keep re cleaning it! Is there a reason you start at the bottom?

Yes, there is a reason - the sill was the dirtiest part of this door - I used it simply as a demonstration section for the video - as you see I did not do the entire door - had I done so I would have, as you rightly said, started at the top and worked downwards. The only time you start at the bottom and work up is when spraying degreasers on vehicles or ovens or softwash chemicals on walls.

[@camcab147]

When you do a door, do you normally work from top to bottom?

Our frames are brown plastic and faded in sun, is there any way to improve them, except replacing?

If you look at car detailing videos - some of them use a heat gun to apply heat to the trim which in turn has a reaction and brings the color back to life. However the effect is only good for about six months. There are also some companies in the UK that will re-spray your frames to give them a new finish.

Can't seem to find this in the UK now?

[@Darren-Green]

The Cleaning Warehouse in Wolverhampton is where I always get mine.

[@daleandrews3698]

@@Darren-Green Thanks, they don't list it on their website but I've got some ordered from Ebay.

Door will be scratched get the gif out folks a pound not a fortune dont be fooled

[@mazijanejones3531]

I have the proper upvc cleaner it smellls very strong but its a liquid though you can get high of it its that strong cant remember WHAT the name of it is

[@Darren-Green]

This is a 'Proper' UPVc cleaner Mazi - this is just a cream base instead of a (Solvent) liquid base like you talk about. The liquid ones (they have many names) are good for dirt and grime but not scuffs and surface scratches.

[@robbeard6929]

May as well use T-Cut but why are you using a green scouring pad.

[@fm1886]

T Cut won't last 2 minutes on upvc.

[@Mike-hu8yz]

Yup. T cut works for me. Heavy dirt will go with Jiff.

[@mickramo498]

to me i would finish off with upvc solvent cleaner then wd 40 on a cloth ?

[@railwayfriends7953]

Please me how to get rid of decades old nicotine from pvc doors

[@Darren-Green]

I am assuming they are white PVC? First I would use a strong solution of UBIX 2000 (From the cleaning warehouse in Willenhall) mix about 1 part Ubix to 3 parts water. This will do the majority of the heavy lifting. Use with a green scourer. Then if you still have any marks left go to the Unger Rubout - again from The Cleaning Warehouse. Honestly, if that doesn't do it (and it will) you'll need new windows. To-date however I haven't found any that I haven't been able to clean. WARNING -- I DID LEARN on my last Nicotine clean up job that that shit is NASTY -- (I am also ex smoker 12 years retired) Even though I wore a face mask and marrigold golves the solution that ran over the gloves and onto my skin left me quite sick for about 3 days. PLEASE BE CAREFUL!

A nice wee add on there Darren!!

[@Puppypaws04]

£45 an hour to clean a door! I don't know whether to be appalled or to admire the audacity of charging that much!

[@garnhamr]

traveling, booking the job in, ordering and maintaining tools and work clothes etc

[@anniejones5204]

£45?? I'm in the wrong job 🤣

[@Puppypaws04]

I don't like the thought he'd be ripping off the elderly or disabled people who can't do such tasks themselves. Mind you, they may not be able to afford £45...

[@garnhamr]

@@Puppypaws04 i'd charge £65 if it were me. imagine the job being a 2 hour round trip and 1 hour to do the work.

[@redcardinalist]

To be fair, it isnt an hour is it surely? 5 minutes will do.

[@crsbt]

The door at the start of the vid looked like my door as new lol.

[@jjrealtalk159]

Where I live in the UK I only Wish I could £45 just to clean a door .the going rate where I live Is £10 - 30 per house . And will generally spent a hour On a first time clean. If only I lived in a richer area.

[@Darren-Green]

Thats not the 'going rate' that is what you have decided is what you are willing to accept for a job.

[@daleandrews3698]

There appears to be 2 versions? One saying Rubout Glass cleaner and another that doesn't mention glass cleaner - confused?

[@Darren-Green]

No idea what you mean but if your saying theres two bottle variants dont worry. As long as its Unger Rub Out it will work fine.

[@daleandrews3698]

Many thanks, it would seem some branding says 'window cleaner' and some doesn't but I now understand it's the same product. Great vid btw!
