Pete, you dear naive decent person, they don't actually*pay*for the paint; there is a reason spray cans are locked in cages in this country😜

So only in U.S. they pay for spray paint?
Or is there a huge black market for spray paint (and even regular paint, since some "art" spans an entire car) that
fell off a truck?
I thought there were custom lines of spray paints made specifically for tagging. And how come none of those paint heists ever make it into the news? It is not like they can just stuff few cans into their pants - those guys need cases full of spray cans. They would have to be breaking into paint warehouses (not art stores).
