I did paint the top. I sanded all of the texture off (I wasn't really fond of it - plus it has some spots were it was worn down or scratched off). I filled the seams with fiberglass & then skimmed in filler to make it smooth overall.

It is painted in a base/clear both inside & out with a flattening agent in the clear. It's not a totally flat paint, more of a satin/low gloss (which is what my wife had wanted). Inside bright white (instead of the factory off white - or stained mess that this one was lol).
