Choosing an "Off White" not only allows for an extended service life
since the daylight is trying to fade a color that is already not pure
white, but is also more able to hide marks and smudges that will
happen during service.

I have zero knowledge on paint for marine purposes, but I would've
thought that our current technological knowledge would be able to come
up with a paint that is truly UV resistant.
