Over the last week or so I've been messing around with paint schemes just for fun. One potential scheme includes some pretty dark colors, including black, on the upper half. I know black would not be appropriate for a glasair or lancair, but how about for our RV's? Will, say, painting the upper half black lead to any potential heat issues? How about black fiberglass wingtips? Also, since I'm hoping to paint myself eventually, are dark colors any easier or more difficult to paint? Are dark colors any more expensive than light? Just looking for ideas before I get too wedded to any one scheme. Thanks.
