Wii Spray

This has been buggin me for a year now. The idea of the Wii Spray was created by amazing Germen graffiti artist Daim. And has since been picked up by Montana. Daim, his team, and Montana Cans helping with the funding and the design, has created an adapter for the Wii-Mote that can load up to 128 different colors and caps allowing for a very real attempt at Spray-painting on your Wii. It's features go even further. Feel free to check this thing out...Just click on the Post Title!

1st Weekly Can Shout-Out!


So heres the idea. I pick a "Paint Provider" and talk about it's line, how it's going, where to get them, and wether or not it's worth buying.

I decided to start off with the worlds most accepted and used brand. They've done incredible things for the graffiti world. Making our art form more accepted around the world.
This week we review the world famous Montana Cans (The German Line)
First off is the Black Line. Awesome set. Im a big fan. It's got plenty of colors, 105 colors to be correct. It's spray is pretty high-pressure, but real quiet. It said on there website that they recommend letting it dry good before painting over it, as it's drying time is a little slower then the Gold Line. This is true, but if used sparing
ly like i do, you wont even notice. As for those who u
se this for bombing...GET AN PINK DOT ON THIS THING MAN! It's coverage is amazing.

Next up is the Gold Line! A Work Of Art! Super fast drying time. Soft spray allowing for amazing accuracy and fantastic coverage. 182 colors, largest color pallet in the world! perfect for everything, entire creative and intricate pieces can be done using only these cans. There's no drips, but still great coverage. iv seen a light yellow Gold line go over a black Gold line in one spray. You couldn't even see the black anymore. TOYS BEWARE! i dont discriminate, and i usually dont use the phrase toy, but if your un experienced dont waste your money. start off with more affordable stepping stone cans.

The new Montana TarBlack, and Silverchrome! newly renovate

d. Its real low pressure, and Was originally made for some fat tags. but after a little playing around with, is now a soft spraying, ready for thins, deep black can. in stores soon, not soon enough.

You don't get Bigger. High Pressure, Black or Chrome, 750mml, XXL. Here's the dare: Drop a Fat cap on this thing and see if you can finish it in one night!


extremely high coverage - extremely fat - extremely precise - weather-proof

10 shock colors. 7 silver and metallic colors, whiteSTAR and blackSTAR. Golden fat cap and new Montana outline cap compatible. Tarblack & Tarwhite based on new bitume recipe. PLATINUM is the successor of the former 600ml range and an ideal extension to the product range. Opacity ranges from good to excellent. Drying time is fairly short despite the synthetic resin,

and therefore provides good compatibility with all the MONTANA products. Due to the valve used, paint output is slightly higher than with other MONTANA products – but the more paint on the wall, the higher the opacity! MONTANA stands by its choice to use a synthetic resin in the PLATINUM line as it is ideal for swift, silent and fairly large work.. paint-quality:Paint quality: Chrome and metallic: Acryl / Shock colors: Synthetic resin. Number of color shades: 19 shock colors........I took this right off the website, it sounds great don't it.

I still havent been able to use one yet, id love to one day. i drool when i watch the videos. its unique, i'll give em that. soon available in a new color.



New to me. the basic line is 20 chosen colors at great coverage and even greater price.


Okay well thats it for. If you want to know more check out the website (just click on the post title) or contact me

Monster and Clash cans!

Monster and Clash cans are almost unheard of around the world, but speaking from experience, they are INCREDIBLE! These cans provide a huge color pallet allowing for extensive and intricate artwork. Not to mention it's super soft spray letting you master your lines. They work great for everything, fills, outlines, and drop a pink dot on this thing and get ready to see some made flares for tags. And if your wondering where you can get these, im proud to say that my local 004 Connec in Miami is the U.S Distributer of both Clash and Monster cans. Check em out.

TRANSFORMER MARKER! The only marker you'll ever need?

Even before using it I thought, Holy Crap! It completely eliminates needing to have multiple sized markers with it's interchangeable nibs. It will never leak in your pockets because of Molotow's genius nib caps, and it's refill chamber at the bottom! Mixing this with the unstoppable Molotow One4All ink it provides all you need in a marker. Actually using it is even better, Molotow did not disappoint. Has Anyone gotten around to buying one of these yet?
