What are the most popular UPVC paint colours? Let’s take a look. These are the 5 most popular UPVC spray paint colours:
1. Light Grey
Light grey can offer a subtle colour change. It’s one of those colours where people will be guessing what’s changed about your house. For this reason, it’s an excellent choice for understated homes. There are several versions of light grey which vary in shade. The lightest grey is slightly darker than Papyrus white.
Popular choice: RAL 7047 Telegrey 4
2. Dark Grey
Dark grey is a classy colour for UPVC. It suits both stone and brick houses, modern and old alike. It mimics the appearance of aluminium and gives windows a slimming effect, because the UPVC border stands out less during the day. There are several versions of dark grey which vary in shade - RAL 7016 Anthracite is one of the most popular.
Popular choice: RAL 7016 Anthracite
3. Jet Black
Jet black offers even greater contrast than dark grey. It is particularly popular on homes built from Yorkshire stone, sandstone and other lighter stones. It changes the appearance of white UPVC dramatically to give a home a brand-new look. It is also a good mimicker of aluminium, offering the look of aluminium at a fraction of the cost.
Popular choice: RAL 7016 Anthracite
4. Pure White
Surprisingly, white is also a popular colour despite UPVC typically being white in its raw state. The reason? Some homeowners don’t want to change the outward appearance of their home, but they do want to refresh the appearance of their windows. Old UPVC that has discoloured is a prime candidate for white spray paint.
Popular choice: 00-E-55 White (British Standard)
5. Chestnut brown
Chestnut brown offers the appearance of chestnut wood. It’s a dark, rich brown with hints of red. It’s popular because most wooden trim on houses is this colour. Other popular browns include mahogany, chocolate and nut brown. These are similar but are less rich and less dark. Chestnut brown is the darkest wood brown.
Popular choice: RAL 8015 Chestnut brown
Other popular UPVC colours
The primary colours green, red and blue are always in demand. Green is a relatively popular colour for UPVC on homes, although in most applications it’s used to paint just a door or garage door. Red is another colour that’s in demand, but again it’s usually used to highlight features on a property. The most interesting colour is blue, with pastel shades like Distant Blue proving popular for windows.
