Fighting Those Tough Stains

Be sure to closely follow the manufacturer’s instructions for each cleaner. Manufacturer does not guarantee nor warrant effectiveness of each individual product.

This list is based upon a study conducted by Vinyl Window and Door Institute on the efficiency of popular cleaning agents and their affects on the appearance of vinyl replacement window and doors. 

Substitute products made by other manufacturers may or may not be as effective. Cleaning materials are listed in alphabetic order. In some cases you may wish to use a mildly abrasive cleaner such as Soft Scrub, Ajax, Bon Ami, etc. 

Use of these abrasives may affect the appearance of glass and vinyl surfaces. Be sure to test the effects of these cleaners on a small, unseen portion of the replacement window before proceeding.

Do not use cleaners containing aggressive organic solvents because they could affect the surface appearance of the vinyl. 

Examples of such cleaners are: chlorine bleach, liquid grease remover, strong soaps and detergents containing organic solvents, nail polish remover and furniture polish and cleaners.

For stains that prove to be more difficult to remove, refer to our household cleaners graphic below.
