If your uPVC cladding is looking faded, discoloured or simply the wrong colour for your property, you may be wondering whether it can be painted. The good news is that yes, uPVC cladding can be professionally spray painted and it is one of the most cost-effective ways to transform the exterior of your home without the need for a full replacement.

In this post, we cover everything you need to know about spray painting uPVC cladding, including whether paint will stick, what colours are available, how much it costs and where we cover.

Will Spray Paint Stick to uPVC Cladding?

This is one of the most common questions we receive and the answer is yes, but only when the right products and preparation methods are used. Standard household paints are not suitable for uPVC and will not adhere properly to the surface, leading to peeling, flaking and a poor finish.

As professional spray painters, we here at We Spray uPVC use a specialist paint that is specifically formulated to bond directly to uPVC surfaces. 

Preparation is equally important. Before any paint is applied, the cladding must be thoroughly cleaned to remove dirt, grease, mould and any other contaminants that could prevent the paint from adhering correctly. This preparation stage is a critical part of the process and is what separates a professional respray from a DIY attempt.

When carried out correctly by an experienced professional, spray paint will stick extremely well to uPVC cladding and deliver a smooth, even, long-lasting finish.

What Colours Can uPVC Cladding Be Spray Painted?

One of the great advantages of professional spray painting is the almost unlimited choice of colours available. We can spray uPVC cladding in virtually any colour, including:

  • RAL Colours — the industry-standard colour system with hundreds of shades to choose from.
  • Farrow and Ball Colours — including all of their most popular exterior colours. The below conservatory cladding was sprayed in Lichen, a beautiful green by Farrow and Ball.
  • Bespoke colour matches — if you have a specific colour in mind, we can match it.

Popular choices for uPVC cladding include classic whites and creams, contemporary greys such as RAL 7016 Anthracite Grey, bold blacks and a wide range of neutral tones. Whether you want your cladding to blend seamlessly with the rest of your property or make a statement, the choice is entirely yours.
