PC Blend / Polymax PC - Adding UV protection?

Hello all,

I've printed a set of hinges in Polymax PC. Printing was pretty straight forward and produced excellent prints with Prusa slicers default settings for this material. I am going to mount the hinges outdoors and am looking for a way to increase UV radiation resistance. Does anyone have experience in coating PC with a UV blocker? Any suggestions on a product (ideally available in the EU)?

Regards

I have no experience on coating of this kind but a simple "coating" would be paint. Any UV-resistant (and therefor any paint for outdoor use) that sticks to the PC should work (I guess?). What are your thoughts about this solution?
If you come accross any solution I would be intrested as well.
