Pond Boss Forums INTRO Questions & Observations PVC Question

United States Plastic Corp suggests in it's catalog "for UV resistance of PVC Pipe and Fittings paint with a white water based latex paint" I have used pvc pipe (white, schedule 40) extensively for hydroponic gardening and can attest for this working. Units I haven't painted turned brittle and powdery from sun exposure while painted ones didn't. Now doing this to a stub of pipe sticking out of a pond may be a challenge, but it does work.
