Hi Guys/girls im having problems with paints breaking in my a5. Just wondering if anyone knows of the best paint to use. I found that sterling ice seems to work, but can anyone recomend anything else? I'm also using a flatline barrel aswell. thanks

If the air temp is above about 10 degrees then winter paint tends to get a bit hard. If you try shooting winter paint on a summers day it's like marbles and bloody hurts, which aint nice. ;)

I'm not sure what the solution is for your A5, but I'd like to hope that shooting winter paint all year round aint it. Some site paint can be a bit brittle in even some of the better markers so before going to the extremes with winter paint, try to get a reasonable brand of paint such as Formula 13, Draxxus Blaze something like that, from a reputable seller, and see how that goes.

hi mate i actually shoot an A5 and yep the boys are right, blaze is the best i've found, i get mine from lips, they shift a lot of paint so you know it hasn't been lying around. Also i'd reccomend getting the soft paddles for you cyclone, the stock paddles can misshape the balls slightly..... i found anyway. i got the soft paddles and use blaze ....get so few breaks now its lovely
