Googling so far not showing much.

Plenty of Guys keep thier RIBs outside,as I did fo many years with no real problems.....undoubtably a decent cover is the key
as....then UV shouldn't be a problem.
Regular checks and normal cleaning/maintanece should take care of the rest, although a Hyperlon protector (applied after a clean) like the 3m product,or Armourall will keep her looking nice AND help with the likes of UV..Bird Shite ...Kids Suncream Fish Scales.. ect ect...when you are using it!
