But it doesn't seem to be very practical. You would have to keep your plane
locked up in a dark room at all times.
It seems that the oil-based urethane finishes have the most UV protection,
but they will still darken over time (just more slowly).
Personally, I prefer the look of the darkened wood. I think it looks real
purdy.
