Painting a conservatory (exterior)
Discussion
It's not something I would have paid to have but it turns out that I actually quite enjoy sitting in the conservatory that came with our house.
The inside is decent but I would like to paint the outside (currently white) to match the rest of our windows (black... again, I didn't fit them but they suit the cotswold stone of the house and I like them).
I've looked into professional firms to do this but have had no luck finding any in our area (Oxfordshire - a few miles from the city).
So, is it the kind of thing I could do myself? I'm pretty capable with DIY and have painted all manner of things in the past (including a car). It's UPVC so I guess would need special paint and I guess I'll need to get up on the roof to do the top.

Zinsser allcoat is good for upvc and hire one of these for the roof
