Air is actually a insulator (think double pane windows) so when you coat it in other surfaces it might actually be cooler. (I don't know what the thermal properties of epoxy are and it is so little, you probably couldn't tell.) Be careful not to coat the headers so you can make adjustments. If it is underwater, remember water conducts so any part not coated is linked. For this reason, a case is the best solution. | |
