Why VuPlex for Kitchen Plastic?

  • Cleans and polishes plastic surfaces in one easy spray
  • Removes spills, fine scratches, and daily grime
  • Leaves a protected finish that resists dust and smears
  • Safe for all non-porous kitchen plastics - including laminate, acrylic, styrene, and polyester surfaces
  • No toxic substances or harsh abrasives
  • Just spray, wipe, and buff - no rinsing or special tools required

For shiny cupboard doors, glossy countertops, and high-gloss laminates, use VuPlex to achieve a smooth, high-shine finish.

For matte or satin kitchen finishes, choose VuPlex Matte Maxx - formulated specifically to clean and protect matte plastic surfaces without adding unwanted gloss.

Use VuPlex On:

  • Kitchen worktops, breakfast bars, and splashbacks
  • Laminate countertops and acrylic cupboard fronts
  • Plastic-framed kitchen shelving and drawer units
  • Food prep surfaces (wipe clean before use)
  • Plastic bin lids, appliances, and covers
  • Utility room plastics, including dryer doors and organiser boxes

How to Use VuPlex in the Kitchen

1. Wipe the Surface First

Remove crumbs and loose dirt with a damp cloth. If needed, lightly rinse the surface with warm water.

2. Spray Lightly

Shake the can and apply a fine liquid solution over the plastic surface - or spray onto your cloth to avoid overspray.

3. Wipe in a Circular Motion

Use a clean cloth or microfibre cloth and work in a circular motion to lift grease, dried food, or stains.

4. Buff with a Dry Cloth

Flip your cloth or use a dry cloth to polish the whole surface. You’ll reveal a high shine that feels smooth, not sticky.

What Makes VuPlex Different?

  • Unlike washing up liquid solutions or dish soap, VuPlex adds a protective layer that makes your kitchen easier to clean next time.
  • It won’t leave streaks, dull spots, or cause premature aging of plastic.
  • Safe to use regularly – keeps surfaces shiny, clean, and free of scratches.
  • Helps prevent stains from reappearing by sealing the pores of the plastic.

VuPlex isn’t just a cleaner - it’s a maintenance solution that helps preserve your surfaces day after day.

Cleaner for Matte Kitchen Cupboards

If your kitchen features matte cupboards, satin laminate panels, or non-gloss plastic surfaces, standard plastic cleaners can cause streaking or unwanted shine. That’s why we also offer VuPlex Matte Maxx - a dedicated plastic surface cleaner for kitchens with matte or soft-touch finishes.

  • VuPlex Matte Maxx is designed to:
  • Remove grease, stubborn stains, and dirt from matte kitchen plastics
  • Clean without altering the surface texture or adding gloss
  • Leave a dry-touch, streak-free, protected finish
  • Work safely on styrene, polyester, and matte laminate cupboard doors
  • Maintain the soft, elegant look of matte kitchen worktops and cabinetry

Just like the original VuPlex, it’s easy to apply: simply spray, wipe with a microfibre cloth, and buff with a dry cloth. No harsh chemicals, no sticky residue - just clean, uniform results.

Use VuPlex Matte Maxx to preserve the natural appearance of your kitchen’s matte plastic surfaces without dulling or damaging them.
