Does anyone know if this can be spray painted a different color without causing harm to sensors?

No problem, just mind that the button that open the sensor can be sticked with the paint.

I painted mine black to match an outdoor gate using spray Vinyl Dye. It eats into the plastic a bit to actually dye the material (not just laying a layer of paint on top) and it worked with just a few coats. Cheap, easy, and the result blends in well with the installation.

Paint should not affect radio waves nor magnetism, unless it contains metal. The only possible annoyance I can think up is gumming up the release button. I'd not put it on too thick or mask that.

Though I have not done it, don't see an issue with painting it. Make sure that you do not impact the ability to open it to change battery and reset the unit.

If you use a permanent marker it wont come off. Or you could make a template of what you want it to say and spray paint it.

I have spray painted a shelving system similar to this. However... I painted it with a primer first... This allowed the spray paint to stick. Not sure it's worth the effort to buy a new one for this purpose... but I was re-purposing an old bookshelf... so it worked for me.

Yes. When re-installing the sensor make sure it's just the clean un damaged metal filament. It breaks very easily and is damaged very easily and won't work correctly. Half turn counter clockwise til it locks into place when re-installing. I'll be happy to answer any other questions you have later, just ask away

no,never happened but you might want to reposition where your sensor is.Remember reading that your problem might happen if it's too close to certain objects.

Although I haven't tried it, the surface looks like it should accept paint just fine. Maybe try an inconspicuous area of the speaker first as a test.

I'm sure you could since the light sensor is just an inline module. If you leave it off just put it on a switchable circuit or you'll have to splice the line, which might mess with the waterproof nature of the line.

I really don't know if you could spray paint it. The material is very shiny, like tin foil. Spray paint may just run off. I think experimenting with regular tin foil would give you an answer.

It is a long time since I unpacked it. As far as I remember, there was a removable bezel which you could have painted any color. Or you could make a picture frame for it. It is such a good product that I would think it worth going to such effort if the color is that important to you. When it is running, you don't really notice the color.

Nope, the manufacturer sends at that way, but you can easily change the color of that using liquid color tints from your local hardware store.

The system is armed, not specific sensors. What you could do is remove specific sensors from the sensor & add it back later, but takes a bit of effort.

I believe that you can by using the settings switch, if that doesn't work....Duct tape over the sensor.

Hello, I don't see any reason why you couldn't. I have read that sometimes the paint can be a little thick which can cause problems but I had no problems whatsoever. This device worked as advertised and saved a lot of time.

No, it was not. I fixed that by removing the glass again and scraping the paint off the inside, (very carefully), of the glass over the sensors. After I did that, the sensors work fine once again.

Yes. Very easy to do and looks great. I spray painted mine black and can't tell that they were not professionally painted.

I would say no. The kit comes with 2 shades of white and gold. It might be possible to mix black paint with the white to get gray?

I would think a light coat of spray paint would be fine. Mine is under the plastic of my center console and works fine, so paint shouldn't matter. As long as it's not metallic or silver paint, of course.
