Oil temps

Does anyone think painting my oil pan with POR 15 could cause any issues with my oil temps?

I'm sure it will raise them a little but it won't be that much. What other choice do you have, let the oil run through the pan and on to the ground?

I have already learned the hard way about getting it on your skin. I was out painting one night until 10:30 using a head lamp for light, by the time I was done, my hands looked like I played the Tin Man in the Wizzard of Oz. It took about 5 days before it was almost gone.
