Most paint will work with the flatline. Just make sure you have a squeegie ready if your using cheap paint.
We have no problems using CORE and Affordaballz from dunahms discount sports. Just make sure to inspect the paint before purchase. Core goes for about $30-35 Affordaballz go for around $25 ------------- A-5 E-Grip JCS Dual Trigger DOP X-CORE 8 stage x-chamber Lapco Bigshot 14" Beadblasted Optional setup: R/T Dead on Blade trigger |

Most Draxxus paints do pretty good in my Flatline. Just dont get dimpled or no round paint and it will be good. -------------

If you get cheap paintballs make sure to throw away the really messed up ones before you put them in your hopper. ------------- Tippman A-5: R/T Freak Jr. Kit Coming: 68/3000 Crossfire D.O.P. Bullet Drop Originally posted by Tae Kwon Doe- "Good Kids" dont carry around .357's. |

| Pretty much anything with small or medium bore. Zaps are very cheap and I heard that they work just fine in flatlines. If you want better quality it is going to be a lot more expensive. |

| Buy a used one from somewhere. Most of them are almost new and they are about half the price. |

Zap works great in the flatline for cheap. Whatever you do, I suggest not getting the purple balls (the box says extreme sports and it has purple all over it). The purple balls were very bad. I started chopping because the balls were soft and kept getting stuck before they could fully load into the chamber. Scorch paintballs go for $35 for 1500 balls. It is great paint that marks well and shows very good. I love it because I paint everyone pink with them. |
