Owatrol Polytrol Colour Restorer, Easy to Apply & Deeply Penetrating, Perfect for Restoring Metals, Plastics, GRPs, PVCs, UPVCs, Composites, Chromes, Gelcoats & More - 0.5 litres

I have been waiting for the rain to hold up since I bought this last year. I have, or had, a very badly weathered black composite front door. It looked almost bleached in parts of the bottom panels and across the bottom. I was hoping that applying this polytrol would help a very shabby door look somewhat better. Without doubt, it has exceeded expectations. The door is glossy, and there are no white bits remaining. It even cleaned up the letterbox, handle and knocker. I applied it by brush first and then with a lint-free cloth, and I rubbed off the excess. I applied it in the morning when it was coolest and no direct sun. I was concerned that it would be a gloopy mess, especially since the temperature yesterday was so high and it was a little sticky into the evening. It was easy to apply and didn't drip. This morning I can see that some areas (the faux wood grain) where the weathering was so bad are a little lighter. I think rereading the instructions I could have left it a little longer (I probably left it 10 minutes working in sections) and worked into those areas a little more before wiping off. Definitely value for money. This was something I thought I'd try before reluctantly buying a new door - I really didn't want all the hassle that goes with it either. You only need a relatively small amount so I have loads of the tin left ready for the next time. I used it on the door furniture and the security lights, so very handy and versatile. An easy DIY project and very satisfying because it did work well.

I used this on a very faded dark wood effect metal garage door (which I had intended to replace at significant cost) and faded matching plastic window sills. The results are fantastic and the garage door looks like new. I have yet to see how long it will last but I’m optimistic. As I’m impatient I used the product on a hot day in full sun which meant it became tacky quite quickly which was my fault and I wouldn’t do that again as using the cloth to wipe it became a bit sticky but even so I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. And I’ve still got loads left from a 0.5 litre tin.

Nice deep colour. definitely say it's durable. Absolutely stinks though. Not advisable to use on the car bumpers. Personally speaking. They looked great initially. Sadly the product reacted with my bumpers and peeling started. Not great. However, I used it on the front door and it was absolutely amazing. Really glossy an excellent results. I guess it depends on what your intention is. Application is relatively easy but just make sure to wear gloves.

Follow the instructions and the product is first class. Used to restore a black south facing composite front door . application by brush was easy leave to semi dry for 20 mins then wipe over to ensure no even application ( you can buff it up if your after a really shiny finish) . Allowed to fully dry for a further few hours and the finish is first class. A little goes a long way so bout I will have to buy again although I am looking at other items / areas that would benefit from an application.

I used this on my composite front door and it looks like new now, it has a lovely new glossy look and the colour is refreshed. Very glad I bought this product I was a bit dubious at first that it would do what it said it would but I am delighted with the end result.

Well worth the cost. Revived a 15 year old composite door. Gave the door a good clean and used very little of the oil. Came up looking like new. Revived the chrome door furniture also.

What a fantastic product I can’t believe how good it is. It magically brings products back to their original colour. I have used Owstrol on my hosepipe casing, down pipes and parts of my caravan it is amazing

Great stuff did what it said on the tin Covered well easy to apply made my window sills look almost like new would recommend

This product works beautifully. I had a plastic deck box that had faded from sun exposure. I used one coat of this product on it using a paintbrush and a rag. It felt slightly tacky at the 22 hour mark, so I used a wet rag to wipe it down and the slight tackiness disappeared. I highly recommend it. The sheen is similar to a semi gloss, which looks new and refreshed. As recommended, I also washed the rag I used with water and soap before discarding it.

L'ho usato sugli scuroni in alluminio verniciato, sono tornati come nuovi.

Génial ! Un produit qui a fait des miracles sur mon vieux salon de jardin tressé noir abîmé par les années ( ternes, gris, un peu peu vert), sur tous les plastiques et le bois. J’en rachèterais dès que mon bidon d’1 L sera fini. Il tient dans le temps, avec soleil et pluie. Je le recommande à 100 %. Bien suivre les instructions.

Hat wahnsinnig geholfen an der lackierten Schüko-Alu-Haustür und dem Hörmann Garagentor (beide Anthrazit). Sieht aus wie neu. In der prallen Sonne aber wohl Wiederholung nach 2 bis 3 Jahren nötig ...
