I've never seen CF get damaged from the sun. Hell, I've held a lighter to some of my cf fabric before, no damage whatsoever.

what i have seen people do is sand it down with 400 go over with scothbrite (burgundy) then put 3 coats of clear on it. I have done this on mine and it worked well

if its coated with uv protection it will last a few years, if it starts to get eaten though you'll have to sand and re-clear
