There's a much more in depth explanation that I read someone explain. Anyone can chime in if they are in the mood to give a science lesson?
Of all colors on cars. Red will fade first if you don't aggressively care for it.
its not really that hard to take care of paint to be honest. a nice car wash specific shampoo (i cant tell you how many times ive found friends using dish soap to wash their cars), and a periodic synthetic sealant, with a high quality carnuba (if you want to go overboard) should be MORE than enough to protect your paint, regardless of the color.

i seal all my cars at least twice a year, which keeps rain/water beeding up BEAUTIFULLY.
