[QUOTE="zorrin, post: 1134840, member: 307188"] The problem of a reflective paint has nothing to do with the antenna but with the reflection of the sun on the LNB which is at the focal point of the dish. The antenna becomes a solar oven and the LNB a pressure cooker... You therefore need a matte paint which does not reflect the rays. It is possible that a dark color heats up the reflector and deforms it slightly. It's always less serious than cooking the LNB... In my opinion a matte light gray is the basic solution. but in green they are too stylish, aren't they? :cool: [/QUOTE]
