impact paint

[esebcarfreak]

I have 3 bags of impact paintballs of a case and I got it 1.5 years ago, do you guys think I could use it this weekend, or should I buy new paint? The bags are still sealed FYI.

Thanks :)

get new stuff. just go buy another case of impact for 38 bucks. Keep the old stuff though for practice shooting or in case you have no other option.

any other opinions?

To test the paint to see if its good get a pair of pliers and squeeze a paintball untill it bust. If it is still good it will bust without you having to squeeze it too hard or compressing the ball too much. If all it does is compress and deform throw it out.

or do a simple drop test, and toss a couple at a tree or big rock. If they break it may be good, or it may actually be too brittle. If it bounces but the paint is still solid it may survive being shot, but chances are breaking on target may be reduced.

cool, I'll try those suggestions.

Thanks
