I'm inclined to think they may have a small positive effect in limited applictations. But they're not the magic bullet that many seem to hope for.
Does making your rear panels look like the surface of golf balls with small divits apply to this also or is this a more proven method?

I still think the forum should be labled the way I mentioned so the folks wanting to post on "those" subjects would be more inclined to post there.
