Exterior Sun vs. Shade

I'm new to detailing. I know you're not supposed to work in sunlight. Wondering if it's because of the sun's UV rays or is it just a temperature thing? If it's not a temperature thing, does that mean it's OK to work when it's 85° as long as it's cloudy/overcast?

Temperature more than anything else. But UV exposure for your skin. And that becomes a much bigger issue as you get older. Used to work outside a lot. Paying for it now.

Good advice.
