      That feeling you get is called ego-driven narcissistism. It's a disorder. It's the fuel that drives anachic minds who have a delusional sense of entitlement, and couldn't get a normal job to save their lives. So, they take out their internalized hate on society by destroying the property of innocent business owners and residents. Ultimately they make the world chaotic and ugly... and this is what makes them happy.

    Common mistake No 11: Do not do a piece on crutches. Piece came out horrible as I was constantly falling down, broke my other foot trying to run away and also got caught. Lose lose lose situation.
    Common mistake No. 12 : Do not eat the spray paint. The spray is toxic to your body.
    Common mistake number 13: do no tell your mum or gram gram that you are on your way to do graffiti. This is a common mistake.
    Common Mistake No. 14: Do not choose a police station to do your piece. This will lead to arrest and possibly jail.

    always wear good quality latex gloves.. 1) no fingerprints.... 2) paint gets on your gloves not on your hands.. just in case you get bagged....3) the paint is immediately absorbed in your bloodstream.... gloves prevent that....4) start with crappy paint and use a good cap ... or rak paint and do whatever.. 5) always rak when possible.....6) stay lo pro.. 7) go out solo.....8) you don't need to be in a crew.... 9) find a desolate area and practice, practice... when ready - hit...There is enough shit on walls.. no need to contribute... 10) don't use social..... people will post your stuff eventually.. 11) assume everyone is a rat.. don't let others know where you live, don't get up in your neighborhood.. don't give out your number.... 12) never be a rat........13) sometimes you have to scope a place beforehand...

    2 practical questions though:
    -if I shake my cans and then it takes me 30min to get to the place do I have to re-shake them?
    -how do I clean caps? (water, alcohol, paper towel,…?)

    This is good advice! Remember, always, always shake your cans off site! I'll never forget one night I was in an alleyway about to throw up a little bubble piece on the vertical sliding door of a loading dock. I didn't think anyone was around at that time of night and I started shaking my cans when suddenly the door slides up really fast and a Korean guy and his wife chased me away with a broom! Stay alert!

    I disagree with number six. Learning is all about getting out of your comfort zone, and with enough practice anyone can improve. That being said, it's probably best not to seriously attempt something that's far beyond your skill level. I also think it's a mistake to try and learn a style you're not passionate about solely because you think you're not good if you can't paint that style. Just practice and follow your passion and you can't go wrong.

    Just a question, would it still be weird if I used my late fathers name? HAPS idk I miss seeing his tags around and every other name I use seems to be already taken anyways.

    also if you leave your can on the ground at the spot you were painting the cops can look for fingerprints on the can from the paint

    hey youfo!, Do you think that you could do some tags on old junk/cardboard with spray paint or with a mop, or even a sakura marker!?

    First, what if I can't find a name that isn't already taken? Second, the sticker is very useful, in a place where you can't throw a tag.

      no matter what name you come up with, there’s probably another out there. just don’t intentionally use someone else’s name.

      There's infinite names you can come up with. For example from the word "Molotow" alone you could make Olot, Towo, Woto, Molt and then add an E: Towoe, Wotoe or a Z: Olotz, Moltz just be creative
