Dispepsic Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 Reasonably priced would be good, but it's not a must. I went down to my local Tilly's a while back, bought some spray on adhesive (I would wheatpaste but, y'know, parents) and saw that they had some spray, but it was just some Design Masters shit that was $17 a pop.

KRUM Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 How would your parents care more about wheat pasting than spray cans? Spray on adhesive is kinda whack. Not a good substitution for wheat pasting in my opinion. What you need to do is go to a place like Home Depot and by some Quick Color black and some Painter's Touch white and practice somewhere chill like a cut where you and your buddies smoke weed at. Also stay away from the toy thread you can't possibly get better with a bunch of other toys critiquing your shit. In fact if you just unplugged your computer and spent all your allowance on paint so you can practice you might actually get somewhere with it. Stay up newby.

Dispepsic Posted February 24, 2007 Author Share Posted February 24, 2007 Thanks man....that's great advice...don't think the parents would approve of any kind of "vandalism", but if the spray-on does seem crappy then I might as well give wheatpaste a shot...and yeah I was considering spending most of my allowance on cans and shit. I went to my hardware store up the road and they didn't have jack shit (plus the guy at the counter kept staring at me), but that was only a shitty small one, so I might see if I can get to a bunning's warehouse or something...there's a shop called Eckersleys in the city I might go check out today.

KRUM Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 Yeah don't bother getting hella good cans or anything yet. Dollar cans and such. Also you can get different caps off of automotive cans and sprays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

decibelrebel Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 auto spare parts stores and shoe repairers - good selection of colours usually from either of these two places ...oh and those little $2special asian bazaars often have cheap gold/chrome/black/red/white, cheap and nasty but good for practice.

Dispepsic Posted March 9, 2007 Author Share Posted March 9, 2007 Shit, I was wondering if there was some under-18 thing with it...damn...well I saw a few hardware stores around that looked like they might have some, might go check it out tomorrow. Also it'd take me a while to get to newtown, not a huge amount but a while...(excuses excuses, haha) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schnitzel Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 I'd hope so because if they get caught selling paint to underagers it's going to make it harder to get my paint becasue i refuse to buy from isenbergs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dispepsic Posted March 14, 2007 Author Share Posted March 14, 2007 Damn. Well it's worth a shot...Isenbergs is in Paddington, right? Dammit, there seems to be a lot of things against me getting spray... On a lighter note I saw someone put up an awesome stencil spray just up the road...
