hello.
i have got the following question:
i am an artist and experimenting with shooting paintball at canvases, creating abstract pictures.
therefore i need a color that is really really thick and looks bright and solid even after drying.
at the moment I need PINK and LIGHT BLUE.
which brand do you recommend?
i hope you can help me.
thank you very much,
yours,
arktik
Well most paintballs are oil based. So you'd have to have a perminaent(sp?) paint. also neon pink?

they arent oil based, they are water based i think. . .
oil would stain, wouldnt it?
and what marker do you plan on using to make these abstract pieces?

after you shoot a little, try spraying hte whole canvas down with hair spray so it stays. i have tried this and it works

I have shot up my wall with paint like 1 month ago and it still isn't dry. I'm gonna try that hair spray thing.
It's because alot of paint is oil based. I think vegy oil. And the wall, paper, (maybe canvase?) will only asorb so much. So i think you'd need a perminant(sp?) paint in the paintball. I've seen them in some paintball mag. ad. store? i saw them in neon pink and neon green. It was awhile ago... before i got into paintball....(my research years took awhile to get someone to shoome so i knew what it felt like)
Are you really an artist? Or some dumb guy thats playin a joke? INCUBE!!!! :eyes: If not sorry.;)

hairspray makes it dry oh and a blowdryer to make it faster

How about you put gas on it and then you use a blow drier with a lighter

marbalizers leave a permanent stain, as do most other paints if you leave them without washing for long enough
