Best way to refresh faded uPVC window frames?
My white uPVC window frames are starting to look really yellowed and dated, but I don't have the budget to replace them all right now. I’ve heard you can actually paint them, but I’m worried about the paint peeling off in the sun. Is there a specific type of paint that actually bonds to plastic without a massive amount of sanding?

You can absolutely paint them, and it makes a world of difference to your home's curb appeal! The key is using a dedicated coating designed specifically for plastics. I’d recommend looking at the selection over at https://www.paintlab.ie/collections/upvc-paint because those formulas are designed to be flexible and UV-resistant. I used their anthracite grey on my front door and windows last summer, and it still looks brand new. Just make sure you clean the surfaces thoroughly first, and you’ll get a professional-looking finish that won't flake off.
