Using Pink Paint...

The NPPL has officially banned the use of pink paint from its competitions. I got this info from paintball.com. Heres the official NPPL banner. .

Damnit. Pink paint is the best. Harder than a biotch to wipe that.

I remember reading on PBN that pink paint has some additive that they need in it that makes it more prone to staining.

The reason they banned pink paint is because it was staining tents ect. and the companies that owned the tents made the nppl pay them full price to buy new tents. Also, it was staining peoples jerseys. And thats just not cool. I like yellow and orange paint a lot more then i like pink.

Pink stains everything. Personally, I like light green. Not many teams have light green jerseys any more.
