Will the colors fade in the sun?

Yes... I'm unfortunately finding that out. My window scene is just over a year old. I'm having to touch it up with folk art paint and seal it with clear. Very disappointing, considering it's made for windows! Also, the colors aren't very dark to begin with... I used many coats.

I leave mine outside and they dry fast after being in the rain. I have the red cushions and I have been disappointed with the colorfastness of them. They appeared to have faded after only a few months in the sun. Otherwise, the furniture has been great.

Hi CB,I am certainly no expert on this product, but I would imagine you could if you realize that the sun is going to fade them. They are colored meaning the sun would wear through that eventually, so would not expect them to last but they look great on a child's wall.

I've had mine 2 years. Yes, it fades. The front and sides of my cover are much lighter than the back cover. The front and sides are in the sun most of the day, the back cover never sees the sun. NJ weather.

We hung and used our sun shades all summer (4 months). We recently took them (6 of them) down, folded them and with the exception of some stretching, they looked like they had just come out of the package. We purchased a pale wheat color ( not the color they advertised, the the name that best describes the color) and they did not fade. This was only one year...and I hope for as successful a summer (s) in the years to come.

we bought ours last summer- i haven't noticed any fade, but we did bring them in during the winter (Colorado) they are made of a some sort of softer version of canvas. overall i would recommend. as far as color they are a bit more of a burnt orange.

I live in the Northeast and it has held up well. The sun in Arizona is much stronger so I can't say if you will have the same experience. This item is sturdy and well constructed but it is possible the color may fade.

I would think that depending on (a) how much sun exposure there is and (b) rain, etc. it would make sense to apply this either annually or semi- annually. I would think that fading would be a good clue to watch for.

The colours have not faded, and, I'm pretty sure they won't, TY is good at having colours that won't fade. The colours are pretty much as deep as they are in the picture, maybe a little deeper, but, it is the exact same colours as Rainbow Dash should be.

No it does not seem to be able to do that, also it fades rather quickly in color............ I would keep it out of the sun.

It's a given, anything that sits in the sun day in & day out is going to fade.... Just keep bright colored, fresh juice in there...that is all the hummingbirds care about!

I have had these in my classroom on my cupboard doors for three years. There is quite a bit of sunlight but they are not in directs sunlight. Mine have not faded nor pealed off.

YES!I have had two hanging outside for about a year and no noted deterioration. Very pleased with construction, ease of hanging and durability. Both hang in sun to shield about 1/2 day.

Mine remain outside, but under an awning so they are not constantly exposed to sun and rain. No fading or deterioration has occurred.

My fabric is white so I'm not worried about fading. I think the fabric is polyester so staining hasn't been an issue.

No but they automatically will fade between colors, and you can control the speed that they change, or pick solid colors, or have them quickly change colors

YES. The color is excellent during the day ... but reverts to a grey scale image at night when the LEDs are used ti illuminate the area.
