im looking for eco friendly because there easy to clean and ok for the environment i like to shoot in my back yard and in the woods so id like a good brand for paint balls so i can be environmentally safe and still have decent paint balls that wont explode in my gun or anything
Sparky, your way off there is only 1 company that makes truly eco friendly paintballs. The oil fill in junk paintballs is annoying but not what makes them unfriendly to the environment. Also if you need anything more than normal laundry detergent then your getting shot by some garbage paint.
Avoid anything that has RPS on the box, it’s paint distributed by KEE Action Sports. The paint is made in China and can be garbage but not always. A local field in my area was actually shut down because they used RPS as their field paint. They leased the property from the core of engineers and had been in business for at least 8 years. The core of engineers decided last year that the dead grass and trees where not acceptable. They gave them a date that they needed to have it cleaned up by but the damage was already done. You can’t regrow grass and trees in dirt you’ve been poisoning for that many years. The time ran out and they got shut down.
The best paint as far as quality and environment friendly is Procaps/Draxxus/GI Sports paint(all the same company now). These paintballs are made in Canada from materials from from the US. This means it didn’t sit on a boat for months and the manufacturer is held accountable easier than the Chinese manufactures, it goes from the factory in a climate controlled truck to the warehouse then to the store or field you buy it from. They have a patented fill that is the best environmentally friendly fill. Not only will it not kill plants but cleanup is amazing, the color goes away and the fill gets chalky, if you need to clean it up simply wait a day or two and brush it away or just wait a week and it will go away on its own.
Draxxus.
But they are no easier to clean than any of the better, more popular brands and types.
"Eco Friendly"… "Environmentally Safe"…. that doesn’t mean squat in paintball. Evil, Allstars, Marbelizers, Premium…. are all extremely good paintballs used by many thousands of players and team all over the country, and these paintballs do NOTHING to harm the environmet. Nothing at all.
Get off your "eco" high horse and just play paintball.

They are all eco friendly for the most part. It is a rule for the companies to make their paint enviromentally frendly. Some have oil in them thats about the only hazardes thing to the environment but the cheap low end paint is what has the most oil.
It all cleans the same in the end though. Dont normally have to do much more then wash ur cloths normally, if needed use some shout or oxyclean.
