What happens if the sun enters the studio from an open window, skylight, or garage door?
Hopefully, it doesn’t last long. It’s not going to hurt the studio at all. Worst-case scenario is if the sun is bright enough, which, it’d be hard to be brighter than our lights in the studio, but if it is, and lower, it will penetrate the plastic, and it will cast a shadow of the steel structure in the background. We’ve never had that complaint, but visually, if the sun hits the studio directly from an open window, a door, or a skylight, it will give spots on your car, but it will also penetrate the plastic and show the outline of the steel frame.
