In summary, it is recommended to use paint specifically designed for high-performance polymers, such as polyamide-based paints, on Grivory GV-5H. Painting can potentially alter its mechanical properties, so it is important to carefully consider the type of paint and application method. Surface preparation is crucial for proper adhesion, and it is best to follow the manufacturer's instructions for curing time, which can vary depending on the type of paint and environmental conditions. Solvent-based paints are not recommended for use on Grivory GV-5H, as they may cause damage. Water-based or polyamide-based paints are generally preferred.
