Having been a graffiti writer and fan of graffiti for many years now, and also a fan and apreciator of the majority of the Montana team, I was really looking forward to seeing this book. I think this is really cheap and wack.Montana Colors is an aerosol paint company that manufactures specialty paints for graffiti artists. It should not be confused with Montana Cans, also a paint company for graffiti artists.
In 1993, two writers who were opening a hip-hop store in Barcelona, Spain, contacted a paint company inquiring about prices of their paint. The commercial manager there, Jordi, heard the idea of manufacturing paint for graffiti artists, and was willing to act on it.
The manager, however, was unable to convince the company of the idea's profitability. Thus, Jordi and the writers worked together to create an ideal paint for artists. In 1994, an event called "Aerosol Art" became the place in which the first Montana Colors aerosol spray was unveiled to the public. Soon after the "Hardcore" 400mL can was also unveiled, a common product today. Then in 2001, the "Alien" cans debuted. These were smaller, lower pressure cans that came in a wide variety of colors.
