EXCELLENT point! I didn't think about that and the other day I got looking at the line and it is breaking down being out in the sun exposed all this time. Too late for me, but hopefully someone else will read this and protect their line after install. Mine is faded and getting a powder on it from UV degradation.
Keep in mind synthetic line is like synthetic rope, it attracts fine grit into the weave. Just like climbing rope it needs to be washed out at some point even if it's just water from a garden hose sprayed on it once stretched out .
