Other than the passing of time what causes the case color to fade. I have been lead to believe sunlight is #1. I know it destroys the colors and deteriorates nearly everything else. I have a mounted turkey in my shop showroom that has a left wing well on it's way to white. Discovered this doing some painting. Pulled the turkey down and the wing toward the windows was noticeably faded.
