Are these lamps coated to prevent hazing and fading?

I honestly did not know such coating existed. I had then for 3 months and are still shinning. Would be happy if they do not fade or haze for 2 or 3 years.

Yes. They are the halogen work lamp bulbs, like you would get for portable construction site lights. Just like those, you'll have to turn them on and let them sit in a well ventilated area (outside) for about 5-10 minutes to burn off the chemical coating before your first use. After that you'll be fine. Very bright and VERY hot!

These lamps are neither halogen nor fluorescent. They are LED ( light emitting diodes ). No glare. You will love this lamp!

I know they would be bright enough. They lay against vinyl siding type of material in my setup and I've never seen any heat/burn marks. You should call Novelty for the best answer

I have 2 in my bedroom their big beautiful lamps,, you could use these without the shade, or buy a white shade to cover them.. good luck.....

They are bright but not coated. Would need to be buffed, then clear-coated to stay polished looking.

No, they are not advertised as such as I recall. They seem to be fine and shade the sun , no problem. Works for me.

No they are not. But they are a simple efficient fixture at an incredibly low price, and each fixture comes with it's own driver. I found them to be very practical.

NO However, they are not water proof and with exposed contacts, could short out. Note that the center for a connection is supposed to be positive but often is not. The lamps will not work unless polarity is correct, they are diodes after all.

they are very flimsy (as in thin and wobbly, not that they will fall apart) , and there was no label indicating UV resistant or what not, but i don't see why not.

Yes they are, I use them for my salt lamp, although the first one only lasted an hour otherwise ok.

The shades are plastic, but a couple of years with compact fluorescent bulbs, and they're doing just fine. Can't answer for incandescent bulbs, though.All in all, it's worth the price :)

I believe the lamps and housing are a sealed system. The housing acts as a heat sink for the leds, so even if you were successful in separating the components you would need to address the heat disapation issue.

No. They are basically a neoprene or foam-like coating. I've had this hanging on the side of a shed outside for about a year and it still is holding up well.

In my opinion, no. They are also thermal-print labels; exposure to heat, such as in a hot car on a summer's day, will cause them to blacken. The ones I have used are not glossy.

I don't think they are. I don't recall seeing it on the package or stamped on the light anywhere. They are rather flimsy, as long as you're careful they should be fine. They are rather cheaply made. If you tighten them too tight, they fall apart.
