Somewhere around here you posted some reference measurements on your Texas....and I have to ask cause I walked up to the pickup this morning and the top whip is gone.

Silky and velvety smooth as I expected; the audio is definitely less brash than the full-on chrome version, and with a bit of a darker tone, according the the local crew.
SWR went up a tad, it appears some RF is now sticking to the matte coil (it slipped right off before). Less of a problem over 25mph...the wind helps, I think...but no major bother either way.
Nothing but compliments local and all over DX land.
Funny, in just the right way.
For more, read audiophile reviews of Kimber Cables or other questionable upgrades. You’ll return from that quest with phrases enough to fill a writers quiver twice over.

More seriously...paint seems good. I’ve never used it; always wondered.
Wiped once with denatured alcohol, and went to town.
Unless I’m painting bare wood, I only buy that type (several competitors).
My test was some outdoor plastic patio furniture. Told my wife I’d try, but to regard as experiment.
There’s no going back after that.

Stopped off at WALCOTT CB today.
