in my opinion, you shouldnt do it unless its like a dirt board or somethin, like you dont really care about it. i did it once wit one of my old boards (fiberglass) and after a lil riding, the paint faded a ton and it just looked real bad. like, horrible. lol. but idk if it will work, but if you put a fresh layer of stuff over the paint to use as a protective layer, then that might work.
good luck
later

It will void all warranties so keep that in mind. Next be sure to sand the board with a fine grit sand paper to make sure the paint adheres. If not the paint will just chip off and create a huge mess. You will want to get an epoxy based paint. it will hold up a lot longer and won't have to deal with the fading issue. Start with your solid base coat then have at it. turn that peace of crap into a work of art.

If it is already painted wood, just do a good job of surface prep (cleaning and sanding to provide a good surface for the paint).
If it's fiberglass, there are probably some primers (they have them for plastics now) made to adhere to it, but you might have to use a gel coat.

dont spray paint it cuz it mite drip down to other side of the board and mess it up. for my board i use fast dry paint and i use a very small brush for the edge. then i use normal brush for inbetween edges

If it is new you might want to check your warranty to be sure this won't void it.
