Yep, the sun does it. I use a pce of white corflute that slides over the shower rail - still lets light in but saves the harsh direct sunlight. I also experimented this summer with screens on the roof hatches. I cut these from el-cheapo windscreen sunshades and fixed them with easily removable 3M type stuff. I can now have hatches open for ventilation rather than blinding light on the really hot days. Will do something neater when I get back home.

I haven't really paid much attention to this thread, as I don't have a bathroom in mine....
Its interesting to read the comment here though.

In building, white paint often turns yellow over time, but it is always most pronounced in a room without windows, and always with gloss finish. I did some research it on at some point a while back and found it is common, and bothers the paint companies a lot.
Even on my own house I can see the difference on cupboard doors from the inside compared to the outside after about 5 years.

I did buy a retractable blind the same size as the roof hatch off of evil bay when i noticed it changing colour but obviously it was too late and damage was done , so we will see how this one goes ...:applouse:

Not sure about the sun light i was thinking more heat as mine had the caravan cover over it which didn't allow any sun light in. When the cover was taken off the walls were yellow. It was over this xmas on those really hot days.

All good now but Jayco have replaced them under warranty so happy days.
