Provided are epoxy-based components and methods of fabricating such components. Specifically, an component comprises an epoxy-based composite part and a UV protective coating disposed over the part. This coating allows for the component to be exposed to UV radiation without any additional coating and without deterioration of the epoxy-based composite part. Specifically, the component may be exposed to interior lights and direct sun during its subsequent fabrication and/or transportation. The UV protective coating comprises polyurethane and silicate filler, such as hydrated aluminum silicate and/or hydrated magnesium silicate. The coating may have a transmittance of less than 1% or even less than 0.1% in the UV range. An epoxy primer layer may be formed directly over the UV protective coating followed by various other coatings, including a decorative finish.
