    Help Painting the non-led part of a led strip...

    Is this possible or would it effect the strip in anyway? I want to buy this - https://www.amazon.co.uk/ALED-Changi..._cd_al_qh_dp_i

    Attach it to the groove in my skirting board around the room. However I reckon the non-led part/ circuitry would be very visible so want to pay it white to blend in...

    I would maybe think about something like this instead : https://www.wholesaleledlights.co.uk...extrusion.html Will protect them from being hit and diffused gives a much nicer glow.
