I would probably go with 60/40 OF/Perlite, I've seen OF compact pretty badly. And with that, you could likely do almost the entire veg phase and only need to add nutes come flowering time.

Never heard of the paint you're talking about, though I would wager since it would work on a roof, it would work on other rough surfaces, you just need to worry about even application.
60/40? When I was doing my research on mixing the soil with perlite everyone using FFOF used 30% max. The people who used 20% said they had no problems. I'm going to put at least 1" of perlite on the very bottom then the soil/perlite mix on top.
