[Paddlewise] Kevlar UV protection

I thought that I'd rewrite my question.  I'm making my kayak andI'm not
too concerned about cosmetic appearances and figured I'd shed off a bit
of weight by losing the gel coat on the deck.  I did a test piece and
repeatedly stabbed it with a knife and it barely made a mark.  If I did
that to gel coat it would have made an ugly mess.  My only concern is
that I know that Kevlar is more sensitive than other products to UV rays
and I'm wondering if tinted resin with UV protection additive is enough
protection.    - Bill Crane
