Fading
 

Description:
Premature and/or excessive lightening of the paint color, which often occurs on surfaces with sunny southern exposure. This is relatively easy to see because hidden areas such as eaves will not usually fade. Fading/poor color retention can also be a result of chalking of the coating.

Possible Cause:
Colors will fade slightly when exposed to intense sunlight. As the coating ages, the fading can become more noticeable. Slight fading is acceptable provided it is gradual and uniform so as not be noticeable. Excessive chalking of the paint film will cause colors to appear lighter.
