White PVC

I have homemade eightbays made from half-inch white PVC schedule 40. And I've had them outside snow and ice in the winter hot sunny days in the summer they been up in the air for over two years. I drilled seep holes in the bottom elbows. One of them fell tipped over landed whiskers first in the snow and ice. The PVC was fine whiskers not so much. the other one got swiped by oak tree branches when I had a tree removed PVC was fine whiskers got wiped right off the screws.i'm still using the same antennas. I've had to refasten the whiskers a couple times. I am now soldering copper whiskers together and I'm in a put them on a PVC stand and I think I will paint the PVC first thanks for the good idea. I think I'm in a paint mine more just because the white stands out so much on my tower.
