The further out, the less weight needs to be added. I've read that it is
far better to not disturb the seal of the prop by shaving, if at all
possible. It may not be possible to change a badly off prop with paint
alone.

Others have opinions reflecting far more experience than me. The largest
prop I've ever balanced is 22 inches, but it does make a huge difference.
