can you paint a monitor black

i've recently modded my xbox ... played w/ it for a while and now i'm gonna give it to my mom as a full fleged computer (for internet & stuff) it's a beautifull thing the only problem is that the monitor i have spare for it is the same **** beige as usuall ... can you recommend any good paint for somthing like this ... do you have any ideas ... thanx ..(wanna make it black)

maybe black with an X on it ...a green X ...very cool :)

i'm in the process of writting a tutorial on xbox modding for AO... my first real contribution after so much lurking and fights on this board...

anyway ... about that paint... any ideas on what should i use that would look nice ...
