We talked heat wrapping the pipes today when I picked it up. In not aware of the coating for the cooler and radiator, does it make them cool faster?

I used this company in Houston: Performance coatings by Polydyn
They did my intercooler & intake pipes, the coating is designed to keep heat out and reduce the transfer into the pipe. For the intercooler this means lower temps, same for the pipes in the engine bay.
