It might be 18, depends where you live. I don't think so here though. My friends in KS used to go to the paint store and buy it for graffiti, always said walmart carded them though...dunno *shrug*

Maybe the Lobby O'Hobby won't card you. Then again transport is an issue unless you can somehow sell the bike paint job to your p-units.

Good advice, but I have to be discreet. I can't drive anywhere, and I can't ask my mom to take me to get spray paint.

That's very generous of you. We might have to work something out, money-wise

EDIT: Oh, I didn't read what you wrote, JSL.
Yeah, they won't believe that. I'm trying to obtain it without them ever finding out, obviously.

Um. No age. Goto Wal-Mart.

I ASSURE you, there's not an age limit. Out here, I HAD to buy about 5 cans for a math project at school. There's a bigass section at Wal-mart. Go grab a cheap can for 99 cents.

There's not even an age for condoms. What makes you think there is one? Maybe your Wal-marts there are really fucked up, in which case goto Lowes or home Depot. Also, if you're not sure, why not just call Wal-mart? They're open 24/7. :mrgreen:

Actually, the problem is that I can't buy spray paint myself. My parents would think I would do graffiti stuff with it, since I'm all into art.

I've heard alot of people say that you have to be a certain age to buy spray paint at some stores, because they're trying to control the graffiti problem. I assumed that Wal-Mart would have the same policy, since people have told me that theirs is like that.

I need black, and/or white, and/or yellow.

If you can't get it, and there really is no age limit, I can probably get a friend of mine to get some for me.

Alright then. I've got money, but get the cheap stuff.

Actually, if Krylon isn't more than a couple bucks, then get that.

Big help, thanks!

:shock:

I've never even heard of carding for spray paint. But yeah, I see what you're getting at with your parents.

Yeah, it's a bit ridiculous that there can be an age restriction for buying paint. I don't even think Clarksville has that big of a graffiti problem.
And by Clarksville, I mean Clarksville Alabama. I'll also give anyone my street address if they'd like it.
