[QUOTE="Gavin Allan, post: 981571, member: 60736"] Most polyurethane that needs good sunlight resistance is made with aliphatic isocyanates. However, these are a little more expensive than traditional TDI or MDI. On my hot tub, sunlight deterioration would not be an issue, as it is under my deck, and the cover is closed on it 98% of the time anyway. It usually doesn't get any use during the daytime. I can imagine that the problems are going to be water, 104 degree heat, ozone, and the monopersulfate sanitizer (I don't use chlorine or bromine). Uphostering/covering them seems that it would cause more problems with water retention, mold, etc. I appreciate the comments and advice. I learn a lot, and something might click. [/QUOTE]
