how to prevent fading

[LowlyAssassin]

This is more a question / discussion thread
Recently I decided to pull my console boxes out of storage and put them on display
But then I thought.... What about fading, how can I protect against fading?
I can t just leave the curtains closed all the time
So I don't a little investigation, and found a company offering UV protective film, great I thought
I can put this on my windows instead of boxing up each individual item
I was just wondering how everyone else tackles this issue?
What other solutions are out there?
The company seems very good, they explain how fading happens and what causes it Here
And Here is the link to there UV protective Film, it comes supplied at a width of roughly 1.5 metres and costs 30GBP a meter, now I know that I could buy half a dozen retro games or half a game with this money but surely it's money well spent, Isn't it?
Any ideas, suggestions' stories your grandparents used to tell you?
Really guys we can't have too much information on this topic
