Using any sort of dry rough cloth could easily mark your uPVC surfaces. uPVC has a long lifespan, but it will mark easily and therefore care must be taken when you are cleaning them or wiping them down.
A home improvement expert will also know not to use corrosive or abrasive cleaning products on the framework. Specialist non-abrasive products are available if you do need some extra cleaning power and these could be acquired from window specialists.
On-going maintenance is something that a person that is good at home improvement knows will keep your uPVC doors and windows working properly.
