Evil Driver works great and so does J&J Ceramic and CP 1 Piece Classic
Strengths:
Very Bright
Very Cheap
Very Consistent
Weaknesses:
None - More colors would be nice though
Review:
I bought a case of these and me and my friend were gonna share 1000 each. It shot great with no curves and very few breaks, I broke 2 balls all day out of ~3000 Paintballs. This paint is very cheap also.. only $45 for 2000 which is very good imo. The paint stands out a lot! On all the bunkers you could see my bright orange and it stood out more then any other paint there (Super swirl, pmi premium, scorch - the brightest besides proto) It shot perfect out of my barrel my dads barrel and my friends barrel and they didnt break one single ball all day. This is very good paint and at $45 a case id say its better then anything else. I dont see how marballizers and all that can be worth $20 more when this is almost perfect.
Conclusion:
- Very bright and very hard to wipe
- Cheap $45/case
- Consistent hardly a dimple in 2 cases
- Very good paint, give it a try and you'll love it!
My Progressive was a just alittle to big, but almost perfect.
Strengths:
Really well made. Nice thick and bright fill.
Weaknesses:
Bright orange, I play in the woods
Review:
Well I went to my local pro-shop to buy a box of paint for the weekend. I was just going to buy the same old GAP when the guy behind the counter told be about Proto. When I compared 10 balls from the GAP to the 10 Proto I could tell the difference immediately. Then when I blew some through my barrel I noticed the consistent size and roundness in the Proto was impressive, so I bought the Proto. On the field everybody was impressed with the performance of this paint. However we did not get a chance to put it through the Flatline but maybe next time, sorry Tippman people.
Conclusion:
I would recommend this product to anyone. Again the only problem is bright orange color, the second you shoot it everyone sees it.

Thick thick fill
Nice shell
Bright color
No dimples or mishapen balls
Weaknesses:
Fill is a little hard to clean if you get a break.
Review:
I just bought a bag of 500 of these to mess around with, man do they rock too. I accidentally had my hopper turned off and I only got one chop, I was also using a crappy barell/ bore match. The one break I did get was so hard to get out of my barell, the fill is so thick. Although with the right barell and hopper these things would probably never chop.
Definantly will buy these again.
Conclusion:
Nice ball, Can't wait to buy some more, one of the best I've used in a while.

adjustable bore sizes (as paint will swell). Used with Freak.
Strengths:
High quality, always breaks, bright fill, relatively cheap.
Weaknesses:
Could use more colors.
Review:
I can get a case of Proto Darts (orange shell/orange fill) at my local shop for $39.95. I would still pay more for it though, it's some high quality stuff! I've used it in my spyder with ACS and my new Ion. I was suprised to see that the Spyder anti-chop bolt worked with the proto paint, I thought it would have been to brittle.
In the Ion, the paint is consistent and always always always breaks. They are durable and reliable, as well as cheap. However, your choices are limited to orange. This paint will swell in the heat, but just swap bores and keep on goin! It will still work great in single-size barrels.
Conclusion:
Great paint! Quality vs. price, it's all I buy now.
Spyder Xtra,14 inch dye xcel, remote line, 16 oz on/off, ricochet Ak, ACS delrin bolt, 4set shocktech spring kit, New c.a.m.d electro frame
Recommended Barrels:
Any kind of barrel would work not stock....well actually it works pretty good with stock
Strengths:
Blows up on target
Good color
bright
good manufacturer
Weaknesses:
Maybe more colors would be helpful theirs only orange
Review:
Performance- Very good best ive seen, blows on target not on barrel, very very bright fill leaves a good marking spot, ive seen only orange for some reason i hope theirs more colors out their,
Price- fair enough $45 at my local shop
Accuracy- very good accuracy, shots straight all the time.
Conclusion:
I say these paintball work great with spyders they shot straight , it seems that theirs nothing wrong with them.... cost is not a real problem their $45 for 2000 at my local shop.

Review:
I went to my locl pro shop and saw they had some new paint in, so I decided to buy a case and a half for me and my friends.
My results (Low Pressure Spyder J&J ceramic barrel)
I loved this paint, never chopped, the only time I had breaks was when my barrel got shot and there was paint in there, and I'm not sure i even broke then. I got some crazy hits onmy friend where it would graze his pant leg and still break.
First Friend (Stock 98C with J&J ceramic barrel)
He didn't break any paint, and had good accuracy (Hisgun was in bad shape, he let it sit 3 years since he used it last and there was corrosion on his bolt, but his gun still worked just fine.)
Second Friend (98C with responce trigger, and Flatline, no electric hopper)
He had trouble all day. He chopped early because he needs an electric hopper, and never got it all the way clean. He was chopping all day long. After heturned his velocity down (we didn't have a chrono) he didn't have as much trouble. It was his first time uing the gun so the chopps, and problems could have been user error.
Conclusion:
I love this paint. at $50 for a case it is not much more than Zap Primer. This is great paint,I've never shot anything that compares to this, I highly recomend you try this paint out.
