What paint do you use?

[viirkokka]

From browsing online, i'm unsure which paint to get.. naturally I want something cheap I can fire off in my back garden but some of them mention 0.68 calibre, etc, will all paint work in any gun?
I.E would field and foundation paintballs from http://www.store.justpaintball.co.uk/paintballs work in an ego08?

And where do you buy the best value paint?

The cheaper the paint, the less brittle it will be, and the less consistently sized and shaped. Mostly when I play, I use site paint, but when buying my own I like Draxus Blaze. All paint will be .68 caliber, that is the industry standard.
If you want to play about in the back garden, consider buying a few hundred "Re-balls" which are rubber, re-useable ammo. I use these to avoid leaving paint all over the garden when testing new mods and purchases, firing them into a rolled up duvet for easy re-ollection.

how much are reballs, they seem a considerably less messy option. also what UK sites sell them?

by the way kevin, do you play with elliot W at KOTH?

 

[Kevin Winter]

I do play with Elliot (Mindful Violence). Not sure where to buy re-balls, mine were a second hand purchase.

personally paint wise I prefer DXS scenario its not as brittle when you play walkons.

on here http://www.bzpaintball.co.uk/ they sell "unbranded" paintballs for just under £20. Anyone had any experience with these unbranded ones?

 

[Mactoshdog]

iv used the £20 paint befor, it is not as good as it sounds, i was using it today, in total i had about 20 brakes out of 2000.
although something is wrong with my Ion, so it may not have been the paints fault

put crap in your gun, get crap out.

It's worth forking out a little more to make sure you'll be shooting paintballs and not soup
