In many TVs, you can just pull the "bezel". It may make it easier to paint.

Manufacturers use a variety of materials: Acrylic , metal, plastic, to name a few, so you have to pick the one that matches your bezel.

The heat of the TV probably will cause discoloration. You are better off getting a automotive trim kit with a vinyl base. This would be made of a similar material to the TV case and could be taken off later. Think rose wood or a custom cut picture frame made of PVC extruded casing glued together and attached with Velcro, would be a second option.

I have found once painted there is no going back, so avoid if possible.

My suggestions will not void the warranty but painting most certainly will.

Sorry, I think that would look tacky. Too, white paint can often turn yellow with time. I think most of these TV's look sleek as they are. Don't paint it. You might consider building a wooden frame around it and painting that white.
