i too use CIF cleaner on a wet rag . but i always tell my customers it takes usually 3 cleans and then the frames will be shiny again . just spend a couple of minutes max each visit and this ;)seems to do the trick

I use doKtor power (JML product) to do white upvc, works a treat. Rub on with a damp cloth and wipe off

Get some upvc solvent cleaner, purpose made for the job only a few quid for a bottle from any plastics company.
Cif will leave scratches in the surface and take the sheen off

milltown i always clean sills when TRAD window cleaning but normally only clean frames as a extra job and charge double my hourly rate if they r bad.so still worth it.ive been climbing ladders 100 times a day for years soft lad ;)but i am saving up for WFP .I bet its easier.im 37 now and would like to cut down the ladder work down a bit to save the knees
