Neffy Approved for Outdoor use?

Is the neffy carbon fiber wrap useable for outdoor applications....say if I want to wrap a pair of eyelids with neffy?
I saw that it was waterproof and spill proof...

People use it on motorcycle seats, so it must be somewhat exterior friendly. Since they are working on a truly exterior version, I would suspect that the standard Neffy is not UV protected, so it will probably fade over time if used on the outside.

Same as CTScott said, it could be use, but depending where you live the sun,weather,temp, and all that it can fade out with time, and would have to be replace. Is like window tint in some sunny states they fade with time.

I neffy wrapped my license plate frame. Put on 10 coats of clear coat. So yes you can clear coat it. That would give it full 100 percent water protection and uv protection as well to prevent fading. It does however make it look a little darker.

^ We are? Not that I know of. Neffy says exterior applications that are a year old still look good and fresh. Unlike my Seibon real carbon fiber hood and hatch, LOL.

It is textured to look and feel 3D, but there are no "fibers" as you would have with real carbon.
