Outdoor Fade Resistance

[jlind]

In the past, a particular project that I'm working on was outdoor exposure at gas pumps, and to get the fade resistance, it was done by screen printing. That was at least two years ago. The quantities are only 50 or 100 on polystyrene. Will wide format solvent or UV ink provide equal fade resistance?

solvent should be sunbleach resistant, but I think you would need to check with the manufacturer for any light fast product specs.
