Flat is preferred, almost without exception. But even paint formulated specifically for satellite reflectors cannot eliminate the temporary frequency interference during an earth/satellite/sun equinox.
Interference during a solar equinox event occurs when the satellite comes directly in line between an earth station and the sun. Signal disruption is due to the sun's radiation overwhelming the satellite signal. Sunlight does indeed represent a broad spectrum of frequencies, hence the interference. But the duration of an equinox event is not typically long enough to make heat technically relevant.
So I'm wondering if you were actually intending to use a word other than "equinoxes".
