It is so long as it is a method which can be certified.

Yes it can be- provided the work is done to a tested and approved specification. BM TRADA, English Heritage, Sealmaster and Envirograph have produced specs for door upgrade systems and had samples tested to BS476.

Have also sourced a paint/varnish based product which can upgrade.
