Cold Paint?

[Glenleft]

Hey all,

Ive been out of playing since september last year, however i am now playing this sunday (yay!!!).
I still have a good 300 or 400 balls left from when i went from the middle of september.
What i wanted to know was, is that ok to use? Is there any way to tell? Id hate to fire a few and wreck the marker and ruin my first day back

If it helps, i use a Halo V35 and a Mini with Dye Throttle tank

Much Love x

You may find you break some in rapid firing.

It is a bit chilly for regular fill at this time of year.

To give an example, I played in October and November at NPF, October was fine but it cooled down in November and lots of players were getting barrel breaks because of the cold. I'm pretty sure they were barrel side of the breech, when the bolt strikes the ball they must have been fracturing and the blast of air/CO2 hitting them caused them to break up in the barrels. I seemed to be taking my barrel off every so often and swabbing a load of paint out. But the bolt, breech and feedneck were all still clean...

Bin them. For the sake of £4, you'll get goop all up in your marker.

If they do make it out the barrel, they will be all dimpled and mis shaped, firing very randomly over the place.

Fresh, round paint always

Depends on the paint too, if its cheap site paint thats strong like bull it shouldnt break On anything, let alone in a marker... Iv had old paint thats harder than a pig with a flick knife. X
