Won’t that undermine the bond with the 3M tape?

My plan is to paint the acrylic underside with VHT Silicone header spray paint. 
 Saw this recommended on a forum somewhere .  Anyone try this?  Good or bad 
idea?

  Subject: Stus-List Reinstalling plexi windows...again.

  Happy spring??  I recall someone commented on priming and/or painting the 
smoke-tint plexiglass edge areas,  prior to installing, to hide the the VHB and 
Dow 795, so all does not show through the smoke plexi against the white cabin 
side along those edge areas.

  I have the window dug out, whew, and cleaned up with Mechanica silicone 
remover and mineral spirits.  I actually lost only three patches of knuckle 
skin. I have also sanded the receiving perimeter of the plexi where it will 
make contact with the tape and/or paint.

  I could not find the mention of the painting step in the archive.  Has anyone 
painted this and have advice?  I purchased a can of Krylon High-bond plastic 
paint in flat black. It's waiting in the barn...  Thoughts?

  Chuck — I used the Krylon Fusion flat black spray paint around the edges of 
my windows, and it worked well.
