it's some crazy looking paint cuz the shell is clear, and it gives it this neon blue look. It's fill is really watery.
The fill is practically useless for identifying if you got hit or not becuase its hard to see. But other than that I do not have a problem with it.

Yeah, the paint is o.k. for uncompetitve rec ball, not the best paint in the world but look at the price. I usually go for Diablo Dusk though for a couple bucks more, I don't go for Evils often (I play rec. so that's why) but cheaters do live longer. That is truthful words from them.;)
I've had bad experiences with blue streak. It seems whenever I buy any there are some broken balls in the bag, which leaves all the balls covered in paint. And sometimes, after storage, a few more balls will drain. It's weird, the shell is still in one piece but there is no paint in it.
Another funny experience. Me and my brother were in a fire fight (both using blue streak). It was in the evening so it was hard to see and I got shot in the forehead. I reached up but I couldn't see or feel the paint. I couldn't distinguish it from my own sweat. So I called for a paint check but my brother didn't see any paint either. So I was still in the game. When we got back into the house we could see that I was actually hit.

blue streak is alright, but there is much better out there.
blue streaks fill is to weak and watery, shells are somewhat brittle. shoots fine for me
just like BE paint, although i try and avoid it when i have to use it, it does a pretty decent job, i actually got a good batch last time i got some, they werent greasy, none were broken, no dimples, and the fill was pretty good. and i still have some after 4 months and they have yet to get greasy or smell.
every batch has its day, for lower end paints it seems

That is half myth... but I do like to hurt my friends, don't you? lol, it won't hurt people, that is a myth that people put out b/c it is a little harder. The product would be taken off if it was injuring people anyways. Now, if it injured one of your friends when it shouldn't have, tell us.;)
