It’s basically colored vegetable oil. Kinda thick, but wipes off with water. Leave a heck of a welt on you even thourgh clothes. We call it “pepperoni” because that’s what the welts look like. Pepperoni slices. Very rarely cuts the skin. Leaves a pretty good bruise. Won’t even break glass.
I suffered an eye injury from a paintball. Went through the safety glasses. They are dangerous.
Thanks, all I could think of is the damage to cars and houses if it was actual paint........
