Topband: Weatherproof enclosures?

[Robert Harmon]

I use the same approach and also paint the exterior of the plastic soda bottle with 
exterior latex house paint, in my case a nice sandstone color :-) left over from my house 
painting.  The plastic bottles last a long time this way, protected from the suns ultraviolet rays.
