John Mencke at Technical Innovations is very knowledgable and
detail-oriented. I am certain that he would be happy to discuss
UV-susceptibility of the materials they use. They have a number of
customers in the Soughwest, of course, since that is a hot-bed of
astronomy :-)

Oh, the Southwest is not "high UV" per-se ... the UV exposure is more
strongly related to the site elevation. Mt Graham is high UV, my back
yard (Phoenix area, 1350 ft elev.) is just "high heat" right now (temp
108 dew point 60 today).
