That depends on the paint being used. Some paints have
additional heat dissipation properties which can extend the
life of the caliper, rotor, and brake pads.

When you have a credible study that backs that up, let us know.
Until then, I'm betting that any difference in radiated heat
because of paint color are inconsequential.

I didn't say anything about the paint color, specifically. I
wrote that some paints have additional heat dissipation
properties...


I see, but sure, go ahead and start another attack with your
typical disparaging opening remarks. When you have a study
that shows what you claim, let us know.

Are you speaking for others again? I've made no attack towards
you.




"I suspect you know very little about race cars of various kinds
based on what you've written..."


Yes I wrote that. This is an attack how exactly?



It implies that I don't know WTF I'm talking about. Speaking of
not knowing WTF you're talking about, have you found a study,
*anything* to back up your claim that went along with that?
The claim that the paint used on brake calipers, components can
have an effect on the longevity of the brake parts due to better
heat dissipation?

Still waiting.



That was your first reply back to me, when you made the claim that
the paint used on brake calipers can have a material effect on
heat and performance. Call it what you will, it's not very nice.
Especially when you apparently don't know WTF you're talking
about.


I'm not calling it anything. I'm asking why you thought I was
attacking you when I wrote it. Oh, I assure you, I do know WTF I'm
talking about, but, I find this to back and forth to be much more
interesting.


Here is the claim you made:

Diesel: "Some paints have additional heat
dissipation properties which can extend the life of the caliper,
rotor, and brake pads. As, over heated pads aren't providing much
if any stopping ability"


Yes I wrote that. And?


And I've asked about 4 times now for a study, a cite, anything credible
to back up that claim. Until you have something, I call BS.
Crickets.......



Again, context is part of your problem, we were talking
about 20"wheels on Micky's car, street cars.


Other than the comment you misunderstood as some sort of an attack on
you, I said nothing specifically about 'race cars' either.


You sure did, you just re-quoted it again. And if you said nothing
about race cars, you want to double down that the type of paint on
street car brake components makes a difference in the longevity due
to better heat dissipation? You really want to do that? It's obviously
an order of magnitude more into the BS zone.


In
relation to my comment above. I have no issues with context, but,
based on your replies, it's possible you might...

And no, it's not up to me or anyone else to go find the sources
for your claims.


I can provide sources which backup what I actually wrote,


Sure you can, that's why none have been forthcoming.
ROFL.




but, I find
this back and forth to be far more interesting.


Trolls typically do.

You seem to be
confusing extend the life of with performance,


I asked for a reference, any credible reference to show that the type of
paint makes any material difference in performance or longevity due to
better heat dissipation. So far....... crickets.
