Subject: Painting windows
Recently we have acquired the use of a building on our campus next to our library to store some of our collection. This building has 12' to 15' ceilings and windows on 2 and 1/2 sides that go from floor to ceiling. This lets in a lot of light and at certain times of the year direct sun light reaches to the center of the floor. This is a "temporary" building so we don't want to put too much money into it. The windows are tinted, but we want to block out more light. Does anyone have any experience with painting windows with a titanium dioxide or zinc paint, or any other paint? Is there any other inexpensive method for blocking the light that we may be over looking?
