Exactly correct! The best thing to do is buff it to a mirror shine as
that will reduce the thermal absorption. Do this inside as well as
outside if you want maximum results. Doing the inside will reduce the
amount of radiated heat that goes from the inside surface directly to
the glider. Just like Techshield plywood roof decking.

Clear reflective metal absorbs less heat than any paint, even white.
