Restoring faded brown guttering.

A 4m length of guttering can expand contract over 25mm in length in different temperatures. You can use a paint brush or foam brush. Let dry and check that all the oxidation is removed. Work it gently into the plastic give it a few seconds to dry buff it off and there you go.

All together took about an hour or so. Take it all down and turn it round you will see that it is not faded. Give you a couple more years probably longer than the paint would stay on. You can use a brush or a cloth.

A paint has to be pretty darn flexible to cope with that. You see it is only the surface that is discoloured under that it is as good as new. Look all you need is a mildly abrasive metal cleaner.
