But with the bright colors like yellow, orange, green, and so the signal you can get equally good?

Don't think that'll make a difference, the dish is designed to reflect the signal anyway. So bright colours should be ok.

It's not really the colour of the paint job you need to worry about. certain types of paint reflect the heat back onto the LNB and can Fry it or at the very least cause signal loss and other odd effects. I would always recommend using matt finish.

Re: Painting dish

Please be advised to be very careful and always follow the health and safety rules and regulation. If the dish is on a hight then use secure ladders. If another roof is involved then use a roof Ladders. Always ask a family member or friend to help you with your task. And avoid going up on the Laddres in high winds and rain.

I really doubt that it is the best job, while it may last longer I would be concerned by the paint base, I think you could be reflecting a lot of heat back onto the Lnb surface with consequent damage to same.
