Our unit came with two Dometic Penguin ii AC units both with black shrouds. I went on the roof not long ago when it was 101* outside and used my infrared thermometer and got temp readings of 145* on both shrouds with the AC units running in the full sun. I then took the shroud off the rear unit, scuffed it up a bit and spray painted it gloss white. Same situation as before only this time the white shroud had a temp reading of 114*. Needless to say I pulled the front AC unit shroud and painted it white as well. To me a drop in temp of 30* could do nothing but help.
