Why?Isn't black colour is better radiator of heat?
But of course,we must find a good material(if can use black thermal paste) for spraying the heatsink.
FYI, those heatsinks and radiator fins that is on black colour is not sprayed.
They are anodized.

While when you spray, you'll be making a thick layer of paint.
Nothing can beat the thin layer of paint anodized on some heatsinks. smile.gif
