The loss of heat transfer due to paint will be nil. I have also been in debate several times of why most brass (no copper in heatercores) radiators are painted black. And came to the conclusion they are painted to stop exterior corrosion which would in time be much worse at performance than if painted.
Not to mention that heatercores are ugly in the raw. Unless you polish the tanks. But the core is still ugly.
