Put a coat of paint on it

A somewhat polite but blunt way to tell someone to shut up, or to drop a particular subject they won't stop talking about
Smith: "I told you this wouldn't work, but does anyone ever listen to me? Noooo!! They just carry on mindlessly doing the same old stupid shit.."

Jones: "Hey Smitty put a coat of paint on it already! We can't solve this problem if you keep jabberjawing way like this!"

In other words, juss sassin' ya. Comes from da playful-but-annoying practice of coming up behind someone who's wearing a long jacket with a divided lower back, grabbing da jacket just above da slit, and then vigorously/rapidly yanking da lower part of da jacket in and out to make da pair of tails slap against da person's butt.
Me: If yer too warm, why doncha go take a dip in da ocean?
You: Jump in da ocean??? Are you crazy??? It's chilly and whitecaps-windy out there!
Me: I know, I know... juss flappin' yer coat-tails...! :D
