Function or style, u pick
I thought the idea of watercooling was to get better performance. I don't understand the idea of going backwards by painting a radiator with a non heat conducting material, this seems counter productive. What we should be looking into is coating radiators with thermal dispersant material. It allows the heat to be pulled from the metal faster. It's used a lot on engine cylinders and radiators to improve heat transfer. painting may increase temp only a few degrees but this may cool an extra few degrees, making the difference of more than a few degrees...i gotta look into it some more.....search for thermal dispersant and do some reading. tell me what u think
