Will the coating hold up to exterior year round use ( e.g. Chicago in winter)? Am thinking of using them on cedar lattice in a deck

I'm not sure but I don't believe it was intended for outdoor use the coating is more to protect them from chipping each other and themselves. sorry i can't be of more help

They definitely are weather proof. They have been outside under a deck for over a year (in Ohio weather conditions) with no issues to date.

I think so. I've had them in a small outdoor patio since August and they've held up pretty well through this northeast winter weather

We put these outside on our tile balcony. They hold up very well, just a little faded now after several months. The only caution is that they can be very slippery, especially when wet underneath, as after a rain.

What about snow? If I leave this around my deck will the harsh winter damage it? I live in Colorado.

We set ours up on our deck last year. It's been outside since then and we live in Minnesota (snow, rain, cold). The color has faded, but it's perfectly functional. Very durable. We'll leave it out there, it's fine.

As long as the cooler surface is fairly smooth, the vinyl should hold up well. Silhouette rates the product's outdoor longevity at 3 years.

They are brushed mild steel, not stainless, with a clear laquer coating. I would not use them outdoors. There is nothing "weatherproof" about them.

In one word: No. It will coat anything nicely, but any Epoxy resin will yellow, crack and generally degrade when exposed to constant UV rays and weather. It will last a few years but be prepared to do the project again. If it's under a canopy then it will last longer, but overall these coatings are not meant to be used outdoors

I'm not entirely sure about a coating but, I've had mine installed for about 5 months now and they still look brand new.

Yes to both questions. I bought this last year to go on my deck. It is out of the sun and doesn't get very wet when it rains. I did put a couple coats of Rustoleum clear paint on the shelf and the baskets before putting it outside and brought it inside over the winter. It's still in really good shape. I did repaint the stand with black Rustoleum before putting it out this year, because it was a little faded.

We use them for exterior with no problems. They are somewhat protected by our carport but are holding up fine

Well I have had some labels in my garden for the last ten years and still look as good as new. They are outside year round in some of the harshest weather included extreme heat and sun to snow and hail. The trick is to buy the UV resistant tape which costs a little more but well worth the extra money.

My understanding they are Not weatherproof. I would not use them outside. But I would recommend them for inside.

Yes. I live in Las Vegas and use them outdoors on my concrete pool deck to secure a pool cover. They withstand the desert sun and water from the pool just fine and I have not have any issue with them for the past year.

It has stood up just fine for us. Was on the deck all winter.. I just brushed off the snow everytime i was out there clearing off the deck.. Looks good as new, and kept everything dry!

We have two of them mounted on our deck outside exposed to harsh winter weather and they work great.They have stood up to snow storms and wind storms with no problems. We are very pleased.
