yeah....... we've all been to practices with only one kind of paint...............so how was the staining last time you went to a "site paint only" event?
It's time to ban pink paint!!!

Excuse me for jumping in at this late stage, but I feel part of the issue is that paint manufacturers are trying to get ever more vivid colours to highlight hits and thus juggle the mix.
To do this they are starting to include metals in the mix which may be the culprits for staining, but does this also threaten the use of some venues as paint has always been portrayed as vegetable dye in a gelatine coat not as an exotic metal laiden cocktail.
Also, would 20 hours of drying not be more authentic, get back from work next day and wash kit?

Metals shouldn't really be staining, something is having a fixing effect and making washable dye permanent. So it could be a chemical reaction the manufacturers aren't aware of.
And everyone who uses 'their' brand of pink paint will say the same thing!!

p.s. cause in my case it's true
pink paint does not stain! any coloured paint can stain, it depends on what is put in the ball. £AP has a pink paint out atm that is stainning. It is z&p that has stannied my knees, which are stainned pink where ive crawled in it. The reason pink is used cuase it stands out so well but is going to stain due to the large amount of pigment needed.
ive seen stainning Orange and Yellow as well form other manafactures but they have changed the fill in there paint so they dont stain any more.
my argument is on the other thread.

So you're saying.........some pink paint does stain then?
Any paint can stain, but pink is staining pretty consistently, also, there is a lot more of it about this season than last.........
I've started checking independently...... some oranges are quite bad too, but blend in better making the stains less obvious..... no white in orange, so it merges in with darks and only stains light colours...... pink is vivid enough to stand out on dark colours too.
Also, I'd avoid naming any manufacturer Ronnie...........that's not an opinion your stating, it's a "fact"....... could attract the attention of those in expensive suits
You can say........... I think so ??????????? is pretty crap without much of a worry, but "???????? is staining" is a statement you could be called to prove.
Or maybe the Zap police will come round and do you
The was some pink paint at STB that was staining very badly, including people's skin etc. Having worn a pure white shirt at the event & played badly enough to take quite a few pink hits, I rather aprehensively put the shirt in the wash. As I'd expected, it came out still covered in pink with a bit of orange as well.
HOWEVER - I put it back in the wash (we're talking Tuesday afternoon by now) with a couple of Vanish Actionball tablets & I now have a perfect white shirt again I even put last year's shirt in (still badly stained with pink and green after about 3 washes) and that's come out completely clean as well.
I LIKE Vanish
