Perhaps it's due to that ingrained childhood fear of getting dirty, but the truth is that when playing paintball for the first time, some of the most common questions are: Does it stain much? Do the paint stains come out of clothes easily? These are the most frequently asked questions before a paintball game, aside from the well-known: Does paintball hurt?
Considering that every paintball field provides you with overalls that not only protect your body from paintball impacts but also prevent stains, whether a paintball leaves a stain or not will mainly depend on its quality.
The balls used as paintball ammunition are made of food colouring covered by a very thin layer of semi-degradable plastic, so they generally don't leave marks or stains.
Hence the importance of the type of paintball being used. There are some balls that won't even burst when you try smashing them with a firm punch. The only result you'll get is a sore hand and confirmation that it's a terrible quality paintball.
There are also different paintball ammunition types for games at various levels that better suit each game's characteristics depending on the season, for example.
As for whether paintball hurts, you can probably guess the answer... No! Paintball is a game, and therefore it's all about having fun, no matter how much it's based on strategy and shooting. Plus, as mentioned before, you're fully protected from head to toe. You might get the occasional bruise, but only from very close-range shots.
But undoubtedly, the best way to verify everything we're telling you is to play a paintball game yourself. We guarantee you'll want to play whenever you have a free day.
