Default Phone aerial

hi all, I intend to remove the phone aerial before the car gets resprayed. Permanently that is. Will it be ok to trace any wiring back and simply snip it off and tape it up .? Or is there any risk of this causing me any electrical problems? Thanks in advance for any help.

That depends, if the aerial is not boosted (ie has no power running to it) just snip the wiring and your good to go.

If it has power, remove power from the wiring before you snip then I would insulate the power wires separately so they can not touch and short out.
