I just found this (FWIW):

"As a side note, PLA is referenced as considerably UV resistant."

Don`t you hate coming across old forum posts where the trail goes cold, we are going to test PLA UV exposure from 2013 then

Really interesting article and super use of the technology but they printed the long term parts in ABS. not sure of difference between 3D hubs simulated ABS and ABS filament FDM printing.

Only plastic that 3D hubs are listing as UV resistant is SLS printed nylon.
