Natural and accelerated UV degradation of coatings - some like It Hot

 
Data from extended exterior exposures of pre-coated metal panels in different areas of the world are now being collated after up to 8 years of exposure. These data for sites such as Florida, Australia and SE Asia will be correlated together using a technique that uses all the data from the various sites collected over the years and not just individual gloss readings. This information will also be compared to that obtained from accelerated weathering over a period of 3000 hours.
