Yes you can paint cable. And inevitably it will look a mess after a while. Take your choce from the available cable colours white, black, grey and brown and leave it at that.

....Or you could hide it in mini trunking.

You don't actually need an Aerial Socket, you do need a cable from your aerial to your TV.

If you are running a new lead from the aerial don't run it to a socket box, just run it straight through the wall to the TV with no joins.

Isn't that exactly what I suggested?;)

This is what I've done. Looks fine as it sits on the top of my skirting and blends in quite well
