You might look into laminating them just like your teachers used to do in school. Might check out some of the office supply places to see if they can do it.
A bigger problem would be the sun-fastness of the dials you printed. I would think that they would fad badly in the sun. You might try converting them to a format you could take to one of the drug stores (CVS and such) and print them off on photo paper. That might be a bit more colorfast.
Laminating is a good idea. Also, if you print them with a printer using pigment ink you will have very little fading. These printers include the Epson Professional printers as well as Canon wide format printers. Dye inks and laser printers can fade pretty fast, sometimes in just a matter of months. Of course, any ink or paint will fade some over time.
