undergoes, is a chemical reaction change, stimulated by Ultraviolet Rays. It’s effectively a natural weathering process, a conclusion of the technology used during the manufacturing of the board itself. Over a 6 to 8 week period, subject to conditions and location, differences in temperature and light, the board’s lifecycle and natural weathering process is affected. The board essentially goes from light to dark and reverts back to light again, before eventually stopping.
