Default Paint what you want, but please put that car on jackstands! The hydrulaic floor jack is meant to...

lift, not hold, the car. Under high loads all hydraulic jacks bleed fluid and begin to drop. If its new or a very good one, you will probably be OK, but this will cause the jack to wear out quicker and it will begin to bleed faster and faster. Also there's the safety issue. You probably don't want that beautiful car to come crashing down with no wheel, especially if you are near or (gasp) under it.
