Watercolors

We would like to know if anybody has done any aging tests on current
Winsor and Newton watercolors. We are using them for inpainting and
we are concerned by their light fastness. We could get only general
information on their stability overtime and are particularly
interested in obtaining further details. We wish to know specific
color changes recorded after stated length of time and conditions
under which the experiments were performed.
