Can this product hold up to long term direct sunlight? Thank you for your answer!

The instructions say that there will be fading if the product is placed in an area where there is direct sunlight and will eventually need to be removed. So fad I haven't had any problems and it has been there for quite a while. Our window sees about 8 hours of direct sunlight a day during the summer months.

We have only had the film up for about 6 months, it has had about 5 hours of direct sunlight for approximately 3 of those months and we do not see any fading yet. It is a great, was to apply film. I would buy it again if needed.

I've not had mine up long enough to know. It appears durable enough that I cannot imagine that it wouldn't. Hope this helps!

I have had this product on my window for almost 4 months in direct sunlight, it stays looking the same and its beautiful. I have had more comments on my windows. But you will not be sorry buying this. Hope this helps.

Yes, it sure can, I have not had this product very long, but I do have other window film that is very similar and last for years.

It has lasted approximately 5 hours in very warm weather (not direct sunlight, but shaded outdoor functions where temps increased to mid-80's). Have not yet tested it in colder weather but would expect 8+ hours in those situations.

Yes and No. if it's in the sun, it kinda turn into little reddish - very nice color. I got one in my office and it has been okay - no sunlight for over 5 months now.

It is a pretty thick fabric so I guess it would hold up to sunlight. I covered it with mulch and stones when I used it.

Not that I am aware of. The package does say to store at 77degrees and out of direct sunlight.

I have not. I always keep it in our garage or in the back of the van. So it's not in direct sunlight very much. Just when we take it out for walks. But it's still perfect. You won't regret buying one.

We love in Florida, we've had it over a year. It sits in direct sunlight all day...no problems so far.

I think it wil last quite a long time, just take it out in the sun once a month. I have had mine for a year and they work perfectly.

We already had one, but, do want to say......We've had about a year and it's held up great, but the black has faded a good bit. Our Florida sun is pretty hard!

i installed two on a shed roof two years ago. im very happy with them. its hard to say how long they can hold up against the sunlight but id guess 5 to 10 years maybe more.

I'm counting on it to last 20+ years. Everything I read about it and others, this is the best and thickest on the market and should last that long if you keep it covered from direct sunlight. Otherwise I read count on about a 1/4 as long.

With good direct sunlight, you should have no problems. Shady days and the charging goes slower.

I left mine out in the sunlight (natural light contains uv) for about 10 minutes and it was fine. If you are talking about AFTER you apply it. I had a faulty package that was rubber before I ever applied it, that is no bueno!

NO! I have been using it for over a year and have seen no fading of sun spots.

It does fade in sunlight after a while. I haven't tested for loss of strength though.

I wouldn't expose this product to sunlight. Uv light breaks down most epoxies. You would have to strip it and recoat every year. Try a marine varnish for outdoor furniture

Hi Boris, It's a very nice piece of furniture, I have had outside for five months under my lanai and it has held up very well. I use it to keep towels in for the pool. It gets direct sunlight from sunrise until about 11am and has not faded at all. I hope this helps you.
