A PVC door rewards lazy cleaners. A quick wipe with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth is usually enough to restore the factory-fresh sheen; no sanding, staining or undercoat required. Because the colour runs through the skin, minor scuffs disappear with gentle rubbing. Avoid abrasive pads— they leave dull patches that attract future grime. Once a month, work a drop of mild detergent along the edge seals to prevent sticky residue that might stop the door from closing snugly. Rinse and dry the gasket to keep it flexible through changing seasons. Moving parts love light lubrication; a silicone spray on hinges and the multipoint strip stops squeaks and wards off winter stiffness. Finish by polishing the handles with the same cloth: the metal warms up, releases a subtle shine and feels welcoming to the next hand that turns it. Little habits, big impact.
