oloured upvc doors and windows: foil or spray?

We are hoping to get coloured upvc doors and windows, so we can have the RAL colour of our choice. It seems there are two ways of getting the colour on either using a laminate foil or spraying.

Has anyone done got either of these? If so, who supplied them? are you happy with the quality? what colour did you go for an how is the product aging?

Big thanks

    I don't have any experience with colouring upvc but I know that there is a paint which bonds/fuses to plastics called krylon fusion. There might be something very similar specifically for upvc so it might be worth looking at that.

    Why not just use wooden frames?
