I had a old 1970's radio shack big stick that was deteriating. I looked through the internet and found that other people painted there antennas to prevent further cracking and splitting. The only thing that I found important was that u should not use a paint with metal as an ingredient. My .02
We wouldn't want a shielded antenna stopping the RF...
lead based paint might be an issue.:
The lead paint might cause conductivity or VF issues if the current were to travel through it. On an imax or an antron there would definately be capacitance issues with the lead paint but on an aluminium antenna if the current travelled through the paint there would be VF issues.
