Can you write your name with that stuff?

Don't know but I can write my name in the snow.

Silly string liquid masking! :-)

dtw, I could barely hit the board...poor woofie was none too thrilled with my aim. :-)

However, James tried it and amazingly hit me directly in the ear. :-)

I think you can spray the stuff in just about any pattern...well...I can't but someone with NORMAL artistic skill could.

@show - did you just refer to my art work like I think you did?!!!!!! :-)

Reminds me of a line from an old Frank Zappa song - don't you eat that yellow snow. :-)

Since moving to SoCal from the midwest, I've forgotten what snow is. I can write my name in the SAND.

@surfdad, if your aim is that bad with silly string, best to not try writing in the snow either.

but beware this thing burn very quickly when set on fire

YES. Instead of driving over it, light it on fire and video tape the results

Driving over the boards was a purely scientific test...ok, ok, ok, let me try that again with a straight face. Driving OVER the...that wasn't believable, Driving over the BOARDS was a...

Forget it, it was simple destruction and ever so much fun! :-)

However, you guys are getting BRUTAL! Cowwboy wants me to soak 'em in water until they turn to mush, Jon wants to shoot 'em with .223 rounds and now dtw and Petr want to torch 'em! :-)

Petr's caution is genuine, there is a video at some b-day party. The stuff literally EXPLODES! :-)

when it catches fire.

Red boards are inherently faster. :-)

There is something about that flash thing that turns my boards black in the middle of the night.

So my plan is to hit this with the silly string and then paint over THAT, leaving parts of this pattern to peek through when I remove the silly string.

I used two cans of the stuff! I would have preferred more masking, but it's an interesting result. PLUS - great fun shooting that stuff everywhere. :-)
