    hey guys i spend around 30-40 $aus on each peice i do i use ironlaks so yeh they cost abit just wondered ruffly how much you guys spend on peices/ writing in general.

    i have checked out the graffiti store and it is a little pricey to get it shipped out to aus so i gotta go with what is in the local distributor.

    so yeh just tell us how much you spend

    Depends on how big you go. Blockbuster cost a hell of a lot more, if you do it with aerosol. I generally spend 25-30

    it all depends on like, how big it is how much color/details is involved,
    if you cur/recut/re recut your lines, if you fill everything before putting details in or if you leave blank spots where details go and so on...

    i get free primer so thats a freebie, i get REAL montana (barcelone) for 6$ a can
    lets say like 35$ a piece + my gas to get there so about 40$ 50$ a piece


    I read abou people using montana black, yeah i guess its god paint but it's not from the originators in barcelone, its a fucking german knockoff...

    Wich in my opinion is wack, spanish montana is made by writers for writers and german montana is made by a mega corporation (the same as dupli-colors) for writers...

    So if i have the choice, i'll stick with spanish montana unless i have no choice but to use the german one... but i still will be pissed about it

    it obviously depends on the paint... I've painted pieces with strictly 1$ paint and they cost me shit... a decent piece...I'd say about 10 dolla... but this piece i did a year and 1/2 ago for example cost me aobut....2-4 dollars...its 80% 1$ walmart paint..except for a few greens/blues on the char.

    Word to that. There is nothing I like better than Krylon though, bomber's best and Sabotaz included. I think if you write, you can still be a moral person, and not support the megalomania of Dupli-color.

    Depends, I can spend upto $100AUD if I buy paint or I just rack, or if I'm doing a piece on the cheap I spend about $9 on exports and $7 on a can of Dulux flat black for my outline. Also racking Plasti's, Killrust, Krylon Original Chrome, Dulux Quit Rust, Wattyl All good.
