[quote="///"][quote="Grover"]Absolutely right, $1 cans are rubbish.

However, I would say get used to ANY can. If you really bomb then you're gonna go on a grand tour of every can that exists, so may as well know $1 cans too. Who knows when someone is gonna hand you one.
theres a store by my house where you can get "sh*t paint" for MORE THAN MY ALOWANCE ,and its hella easy to rack


Dude there's no store by our house that sells paint.. and you dont get allowance and YOU DONT EVEN RACK THAT MUCH! what are you saying?

[quote="OUCHeR!"][quote="Duke EeLLington"][quote="Cose"]in bombing...
It doesn't matter how expensive the paint is. As long as it covers then it's just as good as the next.



now this is a perspective you gotta admire!


not if your paint wont even come out of the cap right and it bubbles on the wall and spurts back in your face causeing you to have to go to the hospital and get treated for gettin paint on your eyes.....true storyy

im gonna have to second that but their is different levels of crap. home depot flat black no brand...great. same thing in any other color epicly fails and comes out like a mush of crap... and theirs also stuff like painters choise which takes forever to dry but isnt that bad

Damn Dawg, First post. ha

This is what I do:
Go to my local walmart.
Tell the guy to open the glass where they keep the paint.
I always pick up two Rusto cans and a 1$ can.
Stick booth CONDOMS in my HAIR.
and pay for the 1$ CONDOM.

Srsly, I hardly use 1$ cans.
I got a bunch just laying around.

If I was older and had a job, I'd go for belton all the way.
sh*tz sick.

im pretty sure i learned it in this topic,you do it with walmarts.... but here it is. don't shake the can when you first get it and spray for like 30 or so seconds and all that sh*t was lacquer and sh*t. then do the upside down sh*t hold it down for fifteen seconds or so and viola! you got yourself some decent paint with low pressure... its a higher pigment over lacquer ratio.its always worked for me
im a mark

isnt laquer lighter than paint.....meaning.... the laquer wont be coming out when you dont shake it and spray for 20 secs.? so if thats true what you just said is completely opposite. except for the low pressure part.
