I wouldn't paint it, but I am me--I am not you.

What I would say, though, is this: Put off painting it as long as you can. As long as it remains unpainted (is "unrepainted" a word?) you are impervious to regret. Once you finally do paint it, you may regret it, or may not. You won't know which until it's too late to go back.

I have had two frames repainted, and regretted it both times, so I'm probably not going down that road again.
