Re: Modifying CIMs to implode?

I am not going to test the rule or disrespect the advice of motor techs on this list. My follow up is in regards to the reported gain in radiational cooling by removing the black paint by sanding to the bare metal?

Our team has never modified a motor or mount but the comment about bare metal verses paint is of mild interest. Does this violate the rule or even the spirit of the rule? I would guess that one could even add paint to the housing as part of some color scheme on the robot...
