What can I possibly do with Inverted Marking Paint?

Alright well I just bought a box of, what I thought were different color spray paints online, but when I received them, they turned out to be a box of 12 Inverted Marking Paint. Under Typical Uses, it says it is good for, "Grass, Athletic Fields, Asphalt, Surveying, Gravel, Concrete, Underground Utilities, Dirt, Construction Sites, and Golf Courses". I've tried to use it on a box and a t-shirt, and on neither does anything show up. I can't see a white line or anything. I was wondering if anyone here has ever used this sort of product for their arts and crafts(?), and if so, how(?). I'd hate to have to throw it away but if I have to I guess I will and buy some real, permanent spray paints. Any suggestions as to a good brand?

Montana cans are good place to start, Along with bombers best. The inverted markers aren't much good, I suppose you could use them for stenciling.

Inverted marking paint might as well just be spray chalk. It's ment to come off. I'm a surveyer so I use it every day that I work. I get it on my boots all the time and it just comes right off with a rub of my thumb.

It's useful if you need to draw a line on clothing before you cut it, I suppose.

You could always mess up the symbols people paint on the ground for paving and stuff...and you could mess up the athletic feilds : p

Other than that I have no clue what you should do with it...

... you could have a lot of fun with socio-terroism...:

*Stencil the handicapped symbol, and spray it on parking spots you want to keep reserved, or on the parking spots of people you don't like and then report it...

*get a hold of some Orange Caution cones and close off a road for some street racing.

*mark a football fields 60 yard line into 666th yard line

*Make a 5 pointed star pointing south around a church or other structure

*get some friends and tag a police station, only to have it disappear when it rains.



... and probably risk getting arrested at anyone of these posted situations. But that is neither here nor there.
