In a message dated 98-10-19 08:37:08 EDT, you write: << I heard about a product which can block 99% of the sun's UV rays. Has anyone had experience with this? If so, would it be sufficient to protect the piano? I'd appreciate hearing (privately or on the list) about experiences members have had servicing pianos that are exposed to sun and ways to protect them as well. Thank you. Ed >> Ed: Yes I have recommended this to people in the same predicament. The sheets can be purchased (try the Brookstone Catalog) and installed by the customer, or I understand there are companies that install. I don't know what is available in your area but I'd call around to find out. I use this UV blocker on the West windows of my home and find no noticeable furniture or rug fade in the areas the sun shines quite intensely in the evening. Hope this helps.
