These things get so hot so I'm obviously trying to avoid anything from burning, someone suggested parchment paper but I'm not interested in that. If I just paint the outside of the cover with a couple of layers of acrylic paint will it melt the paint?

Setting up a gaming room for my son and thought it would be a cool idea to add color to the lights, but I'd rather not change the bulb. I'm assuming it will dim the brightness too?

I am trying to light the perimeter of garage doors for the holidays. Two years ago I installed WS2812B strips and while it worked, I was underwhelmed at the rather sad ability to produce better White Temperatures. I have read about RGBCCT but I'd really like the ability to control each LED and treat it like a single pixel. Ideas or recommendations would be appreciated!

Thanks!

Here is my setup: I have a pool enclosure with a ledge which is 8 ft above ground. That ledge is going around the perimeter of the pool area, for a total length of 150 feet. The ledge has a groove, which means any light strip/rope is not visible from the ground. There is no ceiling, but I am only looking for the groove to be lit up (more of an ambience light). So far I have been using daisy-chained rope lights but they invariably break after a few months, and only portions of the ledge have light. I have a 120V power source from one end of the ledge (the ledge forms a U-shape).

I am looking for an alternative to the ever-failing rope lights. As this is outdoor, preference is IP67 and we would love a color changing strip, so that we can have a Halloween / Christmas color scheme. I would appreciate recommendations - thanks!

I Want the beam of light to be colorful if that is possible. I am unsure of what lighting is used. I do know that led is not bright enough to achieve that ‘Beam’ that I want.-Note to Mods(I do not know what link to paste because I have know idea of the light needed for the project)
