Just two years after hanging, the backing on my heavy duty blockout curtains has broken down.
The white coating has turned to powder, and dropped off exposing the black coating inside the curtain. Brushing my arm against the backing leaves a white talcum powder like coating on my skin.
The windows face East, no eaves. The parts that are out of the sun are fine.
I have double glazing, energy efficient glass and a shade cloth blind on the out side of the window that is always down (some sun still shines through this as is the 50% UV blockout shade cloth).
Has anyone else experienced this with newish blockout curtains?
I took them back to the shop and was told one else had returned any!
