Default Is color of the genset important?

Engines, gensets and bilges should be white at best and very light
grey/silver at worst. Then any drip is immediately visible. Darker
the paint the crappier the items as the maker has no faith in it being
leak proof.

It is a good idea for the entire engine room to be white. There is
never enough light, and white makes the most of what there is. Look
inside a battle tank. All white.
