I think you will find even the top of the line, name brand, Black, UV
resistant only last a few years.
I used the "expensive" ones (1/2" wide by about 16" long) to hold the coax
in place on the tower. They still looked good after three years, but on
closer inspection I was able to break them just using my fingers.
