Front Door in the Sun going Discoloured

[Ian]

Hi - our front door - standard brown metal door - is directly in the sun most of the day and has a white (ish) coating.

I have tried covering / cleaning it with WD40 and although it looks fine for a day or two it quickly loses it appearance.

Any ideas?

If you can get hold of whatever T-cut might be over there it would be my next option. Cay-cut maybe

If you give it a good wash then once dry rub baby oil in to it and buff, it comes up pretty good.  Will need repeating, of course, but not every 5 mins

Thanks - will give that a go - I would replace it but I think the same thing will happen and the white sort of tide mark finish doesn't please her indoors :-)

What you could do is get it covered with a wood veneer. This way when it fades it looks reasonable and you only have to recoat onece or twicw a year.

Looks good to.
