For outdoor use, would be good for indoor use. The red fades fast in the sun, like a few months and it's washed out. It is also far from water proof, might as well use a paper bag, the results would be the same.

@Rug Dr. I would be sorta leery about buying material off of ebay. Its really hard to tell what kind of quality you will actually get. Especially stuff that's going to be out in the sun and elements. There are quite a few great material suppliers online and there is no question of the quality of product you will get from them. I don't have any suppliers locally to me, so this is how I get everything I need. And if its something I haven't used before I will order a sample to make sure its what I'm actually wanting.

for the price it was cheap enough to try. it works well to cover furniture that shedding mutts tend to sleep on. I have a sand color that is holding up well, color wise. It's used around the hot tub to keep neighbors from being nosy. red is just all around bad, it is durable when it comes to dogs nails, they haven't ripped it up.

All red fabric, paints and coatings fade faster. I'm no scientist but it has to do with where red lays on the light energy spectrum. Red has to absorb more light energy than other colors in order to appear red to our eyes. That causes an increase in the pigment fading. This is also why red is sometimes more expensive because you have to use a lot more red pigment than other colors.

Here is some information I found on google

"So, why would light with a very short wavelength effect RED more than blue? The main reason has to do with what light is reflected by each color and what light is absorbed. Red pigment reflects the long wavelength red light. Red pigment also absorbs more the destructive high energy short wavelength light like the blues and greens. "
