Default Which paint to use on Nordschleife asphalt?

Hi!

Me and couple of my friends are leaving for a road trip to Nordschleife next friday. I just tought of leaving my TAG over there and started to wonder which paint would be the best for the job so it would last as long as possible?

I believe that this kind of activity is prohibidet, or is it? What kind of punitive sanction would we get if we were caught by the polizei?

BTW: Is anyone from here going to The Ring between 15th-18th of July?

Fuck knows... but i bet these people who do it wouldn't like it if someone done it on the side of their house! Or more likely the side of the 'council' house they live in

from memory, they charge by the meter for the armco if you damage it @ about Ł600/metre

so if you do do it, don't get caught, and don't advertise on the internet that you've done it either

I think that the grafiti adds to the character of the place.

Providing its not abusive or swearing etc, and kept away from the track itself on the apex of bends, I think its perfectly acceptable to do, I dont view it as vandalism at all, i havent done it myself but would consider doing so.
In fact especially on the fucking barriers they charged me for and STILL havent replaced anyway the thieving cunts

So Ill keep the painting off the track and make my mark on the barrier.

WTF?! Have you ever been and seen the track? Half of the 14mile track is practically caked in graffiti, I think you may be on a crusade to nothing

Nope, not been there

I'm not on a crusade of any description... i just dont get why you would be planning on tagging somewhere abroad just because you are going there or why you would want to graffiti it just because it already has some grafiti there then?

Its just a massive part of the ambience of the place that petrolheads from all over leave their mark there.

Watch a video of it, its all over the track, its one of reasons its got so much character, cause its not just plain black asphalt all the way.
