Re: [GBW] UV protection film/tube for fluorescent lighting
It is my understanding that the UV shields do not last forever.
Perhaps someone has more information?

My landlord just installed T8 Fluorescent light fixtures in my

wonder if anyone might advise me as to how best to protect my
paper, books,
etc. from UV damage. I am trying to decide between tubes and film.
Film is
much cheaper to be sure, but I wonder if anyone has any experience
applying
it to the long fluorescent tube bulbs. Is it worth the extra cost
to just go
with the tubes? Also, if anyone has any other methods for
protecting from UV
in fluorescent bulbs. I would also love to hear if anyone has a
good source
for these things.
