Renovation Project - Painting Antique Hot Water Radiator

in paint •  7 years ago 

The restoration is vary well done,

I am currently taking a coarse on fitting gas lines. Today we learned that Radiators should be painted in black to help emit the heat, white paint will hold on to the heat more than a darker color.

Also shingles should be a lighter gray to help reflect the sun and keep your house cooler in the hotter seasons.

The color for the radiator is interesting. I usually only see white or silver. I'm wondering how big of a factor it actually is.
