restoring vinyl

[jlpressure]

Have a customer that wants 15 duplex style buildings cleaned and then wants a Vinyl siding sealer applied. The siding is in good shape, no oxidation just a little dull maybe. The buildings are more than 4-6 years old. Asked why they want this, what their goal is, they want it to shine and last a 3-4 year before they do it agian.

I mentioned a wax additve but that wont last

Anyone use or know of a product that I can look at.

Thanks

Restora or dakota shine. Restora was made for vinyl siding.

Except Restora was discontinued about 4 year ago

You could replace the siding for what that one product cost a gallon wow that high.

I think restora was taken.off the market. I used it on my yellow siddong and it turned brown. I had a time getting it cleaned.
Dekota Shine will do the trick

You can still get restora products. Just ask around.

I used Plexmaster on my house. Looked good for a while but it isnt any way long term,

All those enhancers are just for pop after a freshly cleaned house, but not too long after it will loose its luster as all those products do.

I did a test area on my garage with Dakota Shine and it lasted for a few years.

 

[Paul Kassander]

Did it make the siding look new or "wet" to hide the faded look?

 

[jon chapman]

what is Dakota shine, lenny?

 

[Lenny Schrecengost]

Dakotashine.com. I used it in a faded put rental truck and it came out looking like 2 years old. Not new.

Any before and after pictures Lenny?

Interesting product was it difficult to work with?

 

[Lenny Schrecengost]

I did'nt do much but it seamed easy. On the truck I cleaned it with their cleaner then used a cheap hvlp sprayer. On the house the test I did was with an arosol.

Jeff,
Did you ever do this siding restoration? I am looking for something to use on shutters. I found shutterrenu.com. SOunds like Restora.

The shutter renu works great Lenny. Its just like restora. It'll make old faded shutters look like new. We bought a gallon this fall and tried it on 2 jobs. It ended up being around 20 sets of shutters and we used around a quart out of the gallon.

Thanks Chris. We have a condo complex that wants the shutters painted. I'll recomend the renu.
