Wyze Contact Sensor Housing stain/paint

[dags]

Has anyone stained or painted their sensor housing to match the door?
I’d like to disguise the contact sensors a little against non-white doors. Anyone attempted to color the housing with a stain or paint to allow the housing to blend with the door color?

I dont think they would stain very well. Might try some simple paint or nail polish if they are that much in the open. I like them being obvious.

I spray-painted mine with Plasti Dip (a removable rubber coating), as I have all my Wyze devices so far. Blends in well. I didn’t want the light, so I masked it and left the mask in place:

Painting Sense Sensors

I would like to install one of these sensors to my screen door. The screen door aluminum is black and I’d like to spray paint the sensors the same color so they don’t stick out… Basically white sensors on black frame. Would there be any problem with the sensor function if I paint them a different color? I’m sure warranty would be thrown out if painted, put fingers crossed! Thank you

I have used enamel paint on many V2’s without issues. Temporarily plug indicator light hole with a toothpick. Hobby stores have a large selection of paint colors in small bottles, in both acrylic or enamel. I have read that acrylic paints do not work well with some plastics. I don’t know that from experiance.

In my case the problem with them being obvious is that they’d be easy to remove. I want to mount it on a safe so it wouldn’t be high enough up to make it inaccessible. Putting it inside would be ideal, but 1) I haven’t been able to figure out the mounting logistics, and 2) not sure if the signal would pass through the safe walls to keep it connected.
