no but it can wear out your shoes
yepp but you can just buy more grip tape and replace it once it starts to wear away.
I am not entirely sure about which grip tape you should go with. the best thing for you to do is go to olympia sports or another facility that specializes in skateboards.
I have used spraypaint and paint pens on my grip. There is no loss or peeling of the grip... It just paints like canvas, or concrete... or paper.
As long as there is grip tape and a end that is bent up its possible
I arnt exactly sure but I think it was first used In 1984
the grip tape in the black sand paper on top of the deck. (The deck is the wood part of the board)

Go to a scooter shop or maybe bye a skateboard grip tape stick on the scooter and spray paint.
