Does powder coating keep heat out?
I am going to make a ram air for my car and would like to powercoat it "almsot chrome" what I'm wondering is w/ teh metal I know it heats up and warms the air, would powder coating keep the heat out so the air stays cool? thanks

i would think that by making the metal less porous(spelling), you lose surface area, and inhibit heat dissipation. in other words, i think it'll cause a higher heat,...but very minimal.
