Can you spray paint ceiling fan paddles?

The white paddles on my ceiling fan have worn down and the edges show dark. Can I spray paint them or something?Can you spray paint ceiling fan paddles?
dont


as it will make the blade thick and then it will not be able to cut the air around it properly asa result it will not give u enough performanceCan you spray paint ceiling fan paddles?
Yes you can , use spray paint . first sand the paddles


just enough until they loose luster . then apply the first light coat, let them dry, and do it again until the new paint has covered the old paint . One important note on the paddles , before you remove them , mark their position and up or down paddle . if you don't do it . the fan will loose it's factory balance! meaning it will rotate like a car tire out of balance , it will shake and you'll be sorry..
Of course, you can spray-paint them. Clean them and spray away.
I changed the colour of mine. I sanded them down first then used spray car primer then a can of spray car paint, worked well and there's some great colours out there!!
Why not? Sand them down, and spray away.





Turn the fan off first, though! :)
Its best not to spray paint them.


You should just use norm paint,i think
It really depends on the material they are made of: wood, plastic, etc. As long as you prep the surface first, sanding and priming you can paint them. If they are plastic then just clean then real good with alcohol and spray them with the ';Fusion'; spray paint. It works great on plastic.
you can do whatever you want. They just unscrew, so paint away!
Yep, you can do it. Prime them first to prevent flaking.
I think you have to use a certain type of paint for that
