I mean no offense, but anecdotal evidence about painting pagers doesn't take
the place of a controlled environment test when it comes to making general
pronouncements about antennas inside of one paint or the other.

So far as I know, the paint could have leaked inside, the pager could have
crapped out from natural causes...

I have absolutely no idea. I can tell you how to run a test on it if you

Had a customer paint his pager case with metalflake paint - didn't
work worth squat when he was done. I suspect the effect would be the
same on any radome (since that's what a pager case is).
