Sun + plastic = destruction into smaller pieces of plastic (not to mention the color wash out first). It does look very cool where you want to put it, but I wouldn't put it there perminantly (I like mr smiley's idea best). this is an indoor display piece. I suppose you could coat it in spar varnish (marine grade), but why? I think ANY tiki would look great in that spot. Why not buy a different tiki and paint it similiar to the drummer or commission someone to do a copy of the tiki drummer? Great backyard, by the way. Looks very relaxing and it is calling out for a tiki. just my $.02 Polynesiac - putting the "F" back in "ART" [ Edited by: Polynesiac 2008-06-18 15:22 ]
