When using CA glue as a finish over white resin barrels, they turn yellow over time. Does anyone have an idea on how I can prevent this from happening? Thanks.

Are you sure it's not the resin itself turning yellow? Here's a notable example of what can happen with time and UV exposure...

I agree, it's the epoxy. Most epoxies have poor uv stability. Urethanes(not polyurethanes, but automotive/industrial) have much better stability but are more expensive and harder to use.

My bet would be upon the resin turning , not the CA . And also in Hokie`s project , the epoxy turning , not the dye .

I should probably clarify... That was a screenshot from a YouTuber's website (Blacktail Studio). Unfortunately I'm not in a position to make big ol' projects like that, haha.
Here is a video where he discusses the yellowing of that table:
