Both this table and the watering can are now several years old, but I was reminded yesterday when I went outside and the sun felt strong. I’ve experienced hot before, but this strong is new to me in Uruguay; it must be the ultraviolet. It eats plastic.
I showed last winter how spray-painted graffiti had actually protected the color in a trash container. I lived in Germany, where the containers are made, so I know they have nothing like the sun here to think about.
I expect this damage is solely from the plastic becoming brittle, exposed to strong sunlight all day long.
