Go for it.
My IC is sitting on my deck lathered in paint stripper right now...... As far as cooling efficiency; your only coating the front of the IC, not inside the core. Ill be posting pics Thursday. |

we've been palying with the idea that a black ic might actually cool the charged air down more efficently than a silver on given the fact that no sunlight is on the ic...in our engineerng class we studdied that black is a color that absorbs energy ex..sunlight, but in the absence of light that black color will absorb another energy, such as heat..so in "thoery" if no sun light a painted ic would be more efficent than a silver one..http://members.cox.net/corvettejake/...ns/1camaro.gif

if its absorbing the heat then thats not good...i cant see it making a difference either way

Just don't get the ceramic paint and make it a lite coat, I think that would be fine.
