Hi Vince-
IIRC, when I did mine, the side with the trim tab would just about balance without trimming the weight and before paint. With paint, it won't be able to balance itself. Hence I would recommend waiting until after paint and do the two sides together. This was with the electric trim servo in the elevator.
FWIW-

Hello,
Does one balance each Horizontal Stabilizer section separately (trim the
lead weights) or as a completed unit connected to the push rods and control
column.
Thanks,
Vince H.
