The reason that radiators are white is unknown because black absorbs and emits heat a whole lot better than white does, mostly because all that the colour white does is reflect infrared heat rays!

If you wish to object to my theory go aheadInfrared? Manufacturers choice for color coding engine. White is usually aluminum. Less corrosive less weight.
