ForceFieldUV Sunblock Fabric Fade Protector Prevent UV Ray Damage - 22oz

This might sound stupid but I use this for my caps, and darker clothing. I live in a hot climate area and just got tired of coming home to find sun stains all over my darker clothes, especially caps. So I decided to try this. Sprayed two brand new shorts and two brand new caps so far, was out in the sun for hours and no sun stains at all. This stuff works! And yes, the spray bottles suck, they leak from the trigger and don't complete a squeeze. You have to pull the trigger back out and squeeze again. But hey, the stuff inside works and it will save more black clothes lol...

Does not work

I applied this to a memory quilt that had been hanging on a wall and had already started to show some fading from sun exposure. First, it did not make the cotton fabric stiff or add a chemical smell of any kind to it. Second, it did appear to revive some definition to the colors of the faded photographs (possibly wishful thinking on the part of my mother-in-law). Overall, she was very pleased with the end result. I was happy that it did not damage the quilt that I had made her 12 years ago and that I had not damaged it with this spray. I will use it again on cotton fabric.

On certain fabrics I can say it really does prevent or reduce sun wear, on other fabrics I am not so sure. Not knowing what fabrics my things are made of can't help much but I would say in most cases it does slow down fading and destruction of the fabric. Really hard to tell without a side by side test, Just expect variable results.

Works just as described! On my wreaths and umbrella outside
