anti fading fabric treatments?

anyone know of any or have used any kind of treatments for seat cloth to keep it from fading?

i am interested in Corbeau seats.. but hear they fade out rather quickly, which really disappoints me. i would hate to have to get new covers for them and put them on year after year or so.

i found this

possible stain protector and UV protector.. can help reduce fading.. and keep the seats clean

could this work?

I don't see why not..

keep the car out of direct sun, in a garage or under a car cover goes a long way too...

well what concerns me is my car is only out in direct sun while i'm working. but this summer 06 i plan on gettin a new job to make alot more money to support these mod plans LOL and i wonder if will have to drive it more often and keep it in the sun longer

the car will be out in sun only while i'm working or doing a quick run into a store or something. several hours most likely at work, very little time spent in the stores
