From what I read, Trex is a PVC wood composite. Most common solvents
will attack PVC. Color in Trex is throughout and should be recoverable

by buffing it up as with other colored plastics. Trex website gives
details on its care.

It probably is PVC. PVC is commonly used for plastics that will be
spending their lives outdoors because of it's inherently good resistance
to UV light.

But, I clean my PVC roller windows with acetone all the time and it
doesn't hurt the windows.
So, I'd kinda doubt that PVC would dissolve in acetone.

acetone will dissolve latex paints very aggressively.



From what I read, polyethylene is a major ingredient which is naturally
hard to paint. Seems like most waste at trash sites is polyethylene or
polypropylene. Might be some PVC. They have different products too.
