presumably standard alkyd gloss

they do colour matching, but i hear dark red and brown are where it
matches worst


People talk of Sadolin - is that a paint or a stain? I do think I need a
paint - unless the old stuff was a polyurethane with a brown admixture?

I'd dearly love to paint everything white, including the brown plastic - but
presumably that is an awkward task too?

Not hard to do, but I'd generally avoid it. Topcoat alone sticks best
to pvc. The trouble is, if or when it starts coming off, it looks like
crp. It would be choosing yet another ongoing maintenance task.
