Yes. AS Hanging tracks can be painted if you want them to blend with your wall or ceiling color. Many tracks already come in neutral finishes that work with most interiors, but painting is an option when you need a custom look.
Painting Guidelines
Pre-finished tracks
Several tracks such as the Click Rail, Up Rail, and Xpo Rail come in a white painted finish that also acts as a primer. This makes them easier to repaint in the color of your choice.
Anodized finishes
Tracks like the Classic Wall Track, Classic Ceiling Track, and Display Reveal are anodized in silver. This finish is extremely durable and long lasting, but it does not take paint as easily. If you want to change the color, consult a paint professional for the best approach.
Proper technique
When painting, make sure you don’t let paint build up inside the bottom slot of the track, as this could affect how smoothly the connectors, cables or hooks operate. It is best to apply a light coat of primer sealer before painting.
Things to Consider
- Always remove burrs and clean surfaces before painting.
- Use a high-quality primer and paint suitable for metal.
- When in doubt, ask your local paint professional for recommendations.
Pro Tip
Many customers find that the standard silver, black, or white finishes already blend seamlessly with most spaces. If you do paint, a picture hanging rail system allows you to keep the track in place long-term, so your custom finish will last as long as your décor.
Yes, you can paint AS Hanging tracks to match your wall or ceiling. Choose the right finish, apply proper technique, and avoid paint buildup in the track slot to keep your system working smoothly
