    Inspiring Ideas in the blanchardstown retail park, has a very large range of craft spray paint.
    Plus, all the usual diy stores sell spray paint. (ie. B&Q, Woodies, Atlantic etc.)

    On the website of O'Sullivans it's stated that they stock German "MONTANA", which is exceptionally high quality spray paint, although I didn't notice any in the store (under the counter?).

    Montana is the best quality paint available , but you'd be surprised of the effects you'd get from cheaper ones, its all about you technique with the can really.

    Inspiring ideas and O sullivans charge upwards of a 100% more than AllCity for the same paint. The Allcity guys also know everything about spraypaint

    Also homebase have recently gotten in rusteloum sprays aswell could be worth a gander. Other than that, the Montana brand as everyone else has said in AllCity in temple bar is your best bet.

    If you want specific colours for smaller projects a good airbrush will save you lots of headaches and cheaper in the long run.

    basically from what i heard german montana scamed the original spanish montana out of there trade mark resulting in people buying german montana thinking its spanish montana and then getting riped of by the slightly lower german standered and higher german prices

    I know this thread is a couple of months old at this stage but given how it ranks on Google I figured I'd throw in my two cents regarding the Montana thing for anyone who comes across this thread down the road.

    There are three main types of spray paints used by graffiti artists: Belton premium, Montana (German) and Montana (Spanish). They are all top quality paints and do pretty much the same job, really the only factor that should influence which one you buy is what colours you want (although some artists boycott Montana German over the copyright thing). There are of course slight differences when it comes to the medium your painting on but they tend to be miniscule.

    I've only used Montana Gold (from the German company) and I can tell you it is top quality, don't let Montana (Spanish) tell you otherwise (they are competitors after all).

    Don't let the Montana dispute influence your choice of which paint, go for whoever has the best range of colours you need (and of course they price will play a factor).

    If you're getting spray paint I'd also recommend buying a few extra caps (maybe of different sizes if you need them) and some paint thinner (to clean out the caps if they get blocked, which they will).
