With regard to color loss, they all will eventually fade to the "natural" color of Spectra, which is more or less tan.
Wind knots are weird. I had a bunch during a week in July — with different reels — and none after that. And no, I had not just respooled those reels when I got the wind knots. The good thing is they can be easily removed. Just wrap your line around each hand on either side of the knot and give a good hard tug and they come right out.
