    use universal astro fats, they're as fat as pink dots, but work on any can

    the silver ones with the black dots are...I don't know I think they're just called silver fats, they're really fat

    astro fat caps are translucent white with black dots

    This is how you make homemade fats/skinneys..

    Skinny cap

    take a stock tip... take a pin/whatever and push it into the dot hole.. rotate it untill the hole gets slightly bigger...

    thats the skinny part... but, it should be too heavy for what it is.. so on the nozzle part.. (the part with the gap as you all know) you should tone down the aerosol... take some super/crazy glue and do a flat dab (not too much or it will no longer fit.. but just enough so it covers the gap... you can also melt the plastic and stick it together but thats fuck hard...

    a homemade fat... theres two ways... theres the kinda easy but messy as way of taking the dot out... and its rather big.. but extremely heavy and splatters alot... just take an exacto knive and push it in the dot and pull it out... theres my favourite method... which is... (oh by the way. the smaller the hole is in the dot the fatter it usually is..) but there is another way... take your exacto knive.. and cut a cross shape into the hole like this +

    that should be most of it done... then take the knive, take the bottom part (the nozzle) and in the gap, make it wider (for the amount of aerosol.. and also longer (for size)...

    now it should be fatter, nice and fat :) but if you want a slow pressure fat then dont increase the wideness by much, if any atall...

    if you really really want me to guys.. i'll post a step by step...

    Ny Fats are very nice i personally think...filling with a stock cap sux horribly...way to long, and its tough to get a good fill, fats are a must(personal thought, not a fact) i just ordered some from bs, theyr awsome. As for the ny thins and german outlines, havent really got to use them in action yet, but they sprayed nicely on the test.
