FAQs
Can I use this on painted surfaces?
This product is designed for unpainted composite, plastic, vinyl, uPVC, fibreglass, rubber, and gelcoat surfaces. It may not adhere correctly or provide the desired results on painted surfaces.
What is the best way to apply the product?
Apply a thin, even coat with a clean, soft cloth or brush. Work the cream into the surface and allow it to dry. A little product goes a long way.
How long does the restoration last?
The duration of the restored appearance and protection depends on the environmental exposure. It provides an enduring barrier, but reapplication may be needed over time for optimal results.
Is this product suitable for car parts?
It is suitable for certain outdoor plastic and rubber components like trim or bumpers if they are made of compatible materials (e.g., uPVC, rubber, fibreglass). Always test on a small, inconspicuous area first.
Can I use this product on white UPVC doors?
While it's designed to restore color, it is most effective on colored surfaces. For white UPVC, it might offer some protection and cleaning, but its color-restoring properties will not be utilized.
Does it provide UV protection?
Yes, the product forms a weather-resistant barrier that protects against the effects of weathering and sun damage, including UV exposure.
How much area can 100ml cover?
As a little goes a long way, 100ml can cover a significant area, such as multiple doors or a large piece of garden furniture, depending on the application thickness.
Troubleshooting
Product not restoring color effectively
Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned and dried before application. Apply a second thin coat if the original fading was severe. Verify the product is suitable for the specific material being treated.
Streaking or uneven finish
Apply the product evenly with a clean cloth or brush, working in one direction. Avoid applying too much product at once. Ensure any excess is wiped off before it dries.
Product seems difficult to spread
Ensure the product is at room temperature. If it's very cold, it may be thicker. A small amount of gentle warming might help, but avoid excessive heat. Use a damp cloth for easier application if needed.
White residue after drying
This can occur if too much product was applied or if it was applied in very humid conditions. Try gently buffing the area with a clean, dry cloth. For persistent residue, a light wash with soap and water may help, followed by a thorough rinse and dry.
