[Thomas]

Do some colors fade quicker than others?

Im getting certainteed landmark atlantic blue. Im 52 so i need a 2 day shingle.

Will they be blue 15 years from now?

I see they have lifetime warranty but that does not cover, according to them:

? Normal weathering, fading, chalking or oxidation; ? Discoloration or other damage caused by air pollution (including but not limited to metallic oxides or metallic particles), mold, mildew, exposure to harmful chemicals or normal weathering resulting from exposure to the elements.

I doubt any pigmented color would fade but the above normal processes would fade them all. My blue aluminum siding after 45 years looks fine but is nowhere near as blue as when new. Must be due to light and surface oxidation as it is bluer in shade of a bay window and a little streak that I hit too hard with the pressure sprayer.

I would tend to avoid brighter colors and if possible stick to white which may over the years get hazy but still be white.
