About a year ago I was told I could not buy spray paint on Sunday before 12pm... now in Texas it is illegal to sell alchohol before that time.,.. but spray paint??? especially when I am well above 18.. (by a year or two.....or three Wink [;)])

It's the dirtbags that bring this on... don't take personal offense... they don't think you might do it. but who knows who is gonna snort some fumes??

In a lot of states, if a person is 18 years old or less, they'll be carded for buying petroleum products like glues, paints, air cans, among others. I know it doesn't make sense because in some states you only have to be 16 to purchase a shotgun and ammunition for it but 18 to buy paint. Hang in there and roll with the flow. Smile [:)]

Well. you may harm yourself by "houghing" paints and glue whereas, with bullets, you'll only harm other people. So they have your safety in mind. ;-)

underaged modeller?
Posted by Anonymous on Monday, August 8, 2005 7:48 PM
Yesterday I had to present my ID at Walmart buying a small bottle of Testors Acryl paint. The day before at the shooting range I could rent a gun and buy a box of ammo with no questions asked... When I inquired the reason I should present my licence for buying paint, the guy answered that it is illegal for kids to buy and use paints and cement. So my question is: is there such a thing as "underage painter"? "Modeller's Anonymus"? Aren't you afraid to admint building model kits since, say, 10?Evil [}:)]
