Subject: Sunburned Cactii

Help! I have recently moved house and unfortunately the original position where I had my cactus turned out to be too exposed, and several of them are suffering from rather bad sunburn. They were on a west-facing front porch. I have moved the less hardy ones to a more sheltered position (north-east side under the eaves), and brought the most badly affected ones inside where they won't be affected by the cold.

My Echinocactuse Grusonii is the worst affected. Several of its ridges have gone an ugly dark red, but the side that was not facing into the sun is still quite healthy. Is there anything else I can do to ensure my spiky friend's survival?
