I never would have thought of painting the seat. I recovered mine with vinyl from the fabric store. I used a halogen lamp to heat the vinyl, 4 clamps to hold it while I stretched it, then once it was stretched, it took two of us to hold it AND staple it at the same time.
I have a hint of slack in one place near the front of the saddle, but not enough that I ever notice it anymore.
