The issue is you'll need to touch it up too often and risk getting too think a paint layer on the fins, thereby reducing the efficiency of the intercooler - The Eastwood paint lasted 5 years on my Bugeye without needing a touchup - the satin black on my front grille was destroyed in about 2 months.
Plus without priming (more paint layers) you will find the satin black doesn't take as well as the Eastwood will on bare metal.
Do it once, do it right!
