Sorry I did not see you're reply sooner. The Cutting boards you are looking at are almost certainly not UV
protected. UV protection is almost exclusivly used for
materials that are designed for outdoor applications.
Without this protection over time the material will discolor and crack. Sunlight also causes it to degrade
and break down. If you can keep the pieces out of direct
sunlight most of the day it may still last for years. I beleive crylon makes a paint specificly for plastics. Try
seeing if this kind of paint is UV resistant. If it is you
should be fine with those $3.00 cutting boards. If they
are white and somewhat flexable they are probably some form of HDPE or LDPE even if there not labeled
that. They are probably made from recycled milk jugs and such. Good luck.
