UPVC Windows-Bird Droppings

Majic

Just been looking at my UPVC Window sills and there are several 'stains' on these caused by I assume bird droppings. The stains are brown/green in colour

I have cleaned the sills with bleach but they do not come away and seen to have 'burned' into the white UPVC.

Any advice as to how I could remove these marks would be greatly appreciated

the thing with upvc is you must keep it clean i do mine properly 3 times a year i had them fitted 14 years ago and they still look brand new .
dont think you can remove bleach you could get cills repaired not cheap though

I would lightly sand the sill or try t-cut but make sure you seal it afterwards. I think you can use car wax to seal?

Try Bar keepers friend Sainsburys sell it its hard to source but good at cleaning uvpc and ovens etc and it isnt harsh cleaner

See this thread

Another thing worth trying is nail varnich remover. We had some big stains on our white UPVC when we moved in here. A bit of that on some kitchen roll - now looks as good as new
