Are you going to sort all the bent and crushed fins? Probably more important than a lick of paint.

Top Tip
A standard lollipop stick is the same size as the gap between the fins.
Push the lollipop from the under side of the IC and pull out from the top.

Nice, not sure if black surround looks better or not.
