Many black paints / non-dye based inks use carbon black as the pigment, and carbon black can be conductive in some paint/ink formulations. So not only "metallic" paints could be problematic if applied over circuits.Soot is a pretty effective black colorant for PCBAs. Maybe if you add more magic smoke to it than it already had it'll actually work better...
