Agreed. I have added UV stabilizers in the urethane pieces but time will be the test of how well they work. A color fading is one thing that can be painted over but cracking, turning to goo or otherwise falling apart is something else.

I don't know if anyone else has made parts of urethane that are in a hot area and exposed to the direct sun. Pieces I have made that are covered seem to be holding up very well so Kev may be the first test of the other extreme.

Anyone else have experience in this area or have anything made of cast urethane rubber?
