How so?

As far as I know black will absorb more heat from an external source like the sun (radiant) but as far as producing heat color should be irrelevant.

Also the way I understand coatings they are designed to contain the heat and help shuttle it out of the exhaust.

Please explain your thoughts. I'm here for ideas on the subject.
