Ben Cox Posted September 17, 2005 Report Share Posted September 17, 2005 i used to dable in some of this graffiti malarky :'(, my tip is always go for proper graffiti paint like the aformentioned montana series (gold or hardcore) or the belton brand which are cheaper and in my opinion better (thicker paint/less dribble) hope ive helped Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Nick Riviera Posted September 18, 2005 Report Share Posted September 18, 2005 nah , im well into it , its not really the paint , more the application , sparingly and evenly i use halfords own , never had any problems using it if you want to do a ramp sand the surface down before , it'll stick better materials ; go to the craft shop , buy a scalpel , shit loads of blades and use acetate where available , failing that cereal packets will do :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference in pressure and paint quality is a amazing and the caps are changable and not crap like halfords Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrEvil270183 Posted September 18, 2005 Report Share Posted September 18, 2005 ive never done anything like it before but surely daahnhillaaaa is right, if its just a stencil then the paint will spray the same. i can understand if its for graffiti images etc, different results with each cap etc (Y) just wondering if you use the more expensive paint for stencils?
