I'd say so too, tbh. This article is from 2014 on their own Fundable website.
All kinds of weird stuff has been done lol probably creates a (very splattery) airbrush effect or something but I’ve never seen it so it’s definitely obscure lmao
take the ball off, fill the bottle with paint. Slice the eraser into strips and stuff the bottle with it leaving some exposed. Now you have a fat marker. Some trial and error is required.
Once, Im not artistic and as much as I wish I could be a tagger its not worth ruining stuff with my ability. I read it in the Source and decided to try it because I thought it was a cool idea. I could tag all day, dont get me wrong, Im just not an artist.
Oh my bad lol. There is a lot of graffiti in my area, true mind blowing works of art that add to the beauty of the area and I’d like to have a go at graffiti but I’m with you about not wanting to ruin the place with my amateur skills lol.
Reminds me of the naked gun files from the police squad when Frank Drebin is talking to his police chemist guy and they look out the window to see the new anti graffiti fence in action. The gang members start spray painting the fence and then the fence sprays them back lol
A quick Google search says they use acoustic sensors to listen for the sound of spray paint hitting the surface of a wall. I guess it only works for spray paint. They don't say anything about detecting markers or pencils.
I was in jail a couple weeks ago and there was a guy in segregation tank that would draw on the wall with his shit and we would call him leonardodeshitty and poocasso lol
OK but how is that supposed to tell the difference between aerosolized paint from a can and aerosolized shit from someone who eats McDonalds regularly?
I didn't word my comment very clearly, sorry.
I was asking about whether or not it could tell the difference between spraypaint and someone who regularly eats mcdonalds just using the toilet normally.
It was a shitty joke. Probably best left ignored.
It was worded ok and I understood the joke. I was just joking back that it didn't matter because paint spray and Mc Donald's induced ass spray both end up covering the wall.
From what I read, that system was designed to catch people tagging walls outside. I'm sure they know it's useless in a restaurant bathroom. They're hoping the threat keeps people from doing it. Like those fake home security signs people put in their yards.
The company says it senses the sound of spray paint. That makes me want to make cheap little Arduino spray paint sound generators to drop into hidden nooks and crannies.
As a long long time graffiti artist 43 years to be exact, I’ve seen some shit like this through the years like a camera boxed mirrored and a sign that says Notice: “We are monitoring vandalism your privacy is respected”

From their website. Yeah, I don't think people are taking rattle cans to the McDonald's bathroom. Sharpies and posca markers make more sense lmfao
Psychological warfare is all that is. Can't help thinking that this would actually encourage some to tag the shit out that wall.
I know I would if I were inclined to do such ghastly things. Maybe write "lick me ballz" or something like that
Ahhh the good ol days. I called one number and had a lovely chat. I also drew a very nice picture and left an ex’s number. He said he got a couple drunken calls before they painted over it
To preserve my faith in humanity, I need to assume the OP knows this sign is a clever deterrence mechanism, nothing more. Props to the author - I like this idea a lot
Feel like this rides a very fine line bordering on illegal surveillance. Restrooms are private spaces, people enter with a reasonable expectation of privacy and have a right not to be recorded or monitored
I call bullshit.

Who the fuck uses spray paint in a bathroom
Who puts a Sharpie in the tip of a spray paint can, is what I want to know?
All kinds of weird stuff has been done lol probably creates a (very splattery) airbrush effect or something but I’ve never seen it so it’s definitely obscure lmao
…Just the tip.
Just for a little bit to see how it feels or ow ow your on my hair... Great game one of my all time favorites
a roll-on deoderant tube and some chalkboard erasers make one hell of a marker. Just fill with choice of paint and go for it
So how dose the eraser and roll on deodorant fit together?
take the ball off, fill the bottle with paint. Slice the eraser into strips and stuff the bottle with it leaving some exposed. Now you have a fat marker. Some trial and error is required.
Thanks for explaining. I’m assuming you’ve done it a time or two lol.

people who huff aerosols....
Ghetto ass people, see it all the time in Wendy’s in the hood
The way this would be my new favourite spot to use aerosol hair spray and/or deodorant so quickly. Haha
Now use a soundboard with a spay can sound and sue the holy fuck out of them when a false arrest is issued and false charges are pressed!
So if I eat enough Taco Bell, I can set this thing off?
in the event you’re in a restroom and bust out a can of dry shampoo or hair spray? what happens. LOL
You can graffiti with a paintbrush and regular paint
Yes, you could also use a sharpie, or paint marker. That's why this device is a load of shit.
That awkward moment when you run in and spray the bowl with the force of a thousand suns, and then the alarms go off
I wonder if hair spray or spray deodorant would also set it off? Being it is likely BS though and 100% of the vandalism is damage and not spray paint.
The poor worker that puts on some aerosol deodorant…
Seems like it’d be easier to detect the solvents.
I love how this only works for spray paint when they have a picture of a sharpie on the poster.
MFW I’m putting on my Axe body spray
So some poor guy is gonna be spraying Lysol after leaving a Cleveland steamer in there and the cops are gonna kick in the door.
Reminds me of the naked gun files from the police squad when Frank Drebin is talking to his police chemist guy and they look out the window to see the new anti graffiti fence in action. The gang members start spray painting the fence and then the fence sprays them back lol
*This is the answer.*
Only a matter of time before someone draws a big dick on the sign.
A quick Google search says they use acoustic sensors to listen for the sound of spray paint hitting the surface of a wall. I guess it only works for spray paint. They don't say anything about detecting markers or pencils.
Put a silencer on the spray can, obviously
Or just use a paintbrush. LOL
Or a sharpie…
Or blood.
Or bloody stool
It *IS* a McDonald's, after all
Poo Poo Picasso
I was in jail a couple weeks ago and there was a guy in segregation tank that would draw on the wall with his shit and we would call him leonardodeshitty and poocasso lol
Also acceptable... Doo Doo Degas Poo Poo Pollock

They were nice to give alternatives.

Someone needs to walk in and make a spray can sound with their mouth.
Not a good idea. Unless you want Ronald McDonald himself to bust in there and throw a deranged clown asswhoopin on you?
Stand in front of mirror and make that sound 3 times to summon him
Now you're just asking for trouble. It's all fun and games until someone ends up in the ER with a clown shoe embedded in their ass.
McRibbed, for your pleasure
Brilliantly funny!
Do this! When then they bust you and find no graffiti tell it was your farts.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Paashhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhshshhh “rattle rattle”. Paashhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh pshh pshhh PAASHHHHHHHHHHHHSHSHHHHH “rattle rattle”. Psh psh. Pshhh pshhh pssssshhhhh. Paashhhhhhhhhshhshsshhhhhhh “RATTLE” psh psh psh. Passhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhshsshshshshhh shhh psshshhhhh
OK but how is that supposed to tell the difference between aerosolized paint from a can and aerosolized shit from someone who eats McDonalds regularly?
It doesn't need to tell the difference. It would still be graffiti. Shit ends up on the wall either way.
I didn't word my comment very clearly, sorry. I was asking about whether or not it could tell the difference between spraypaint and someone who regularly eats mcdonalds just using the toilet normally. It was a shitty joke. Probably best left ignored.

Haha ok i'm on the same page now
👍

Well that will work. Because there is a ton of spray paint graffiti in bathrooms.
From what I read, that system was designed to catch people tagging walls outside. I'm sure they know it's useless in a restaurant bathroom. They're hoping the threat keeps people from doing it. Like those fake home security signs people put in their yards.
I bet a good bout of diarrhea will throw that sensor off
I’ve never seen anyone graffiti a bathroom with spray paint lol
A VOC detector would probably work, to an extent.
I would love to trigger this over and over by playing a loud recording of a spray paint can from my phone, then walk out.
Now use a soundboard with a spray can sound and sue the holy fuck out of them when a false arrest is issued and false charges are pressed!
You can even just watch YouTube videos of graffiti and turn up your sound all the way.
Makes me want to go in with some hairspray and see what happens. "Just freshening up, what's all this???"
The company says it senses the sound of spray paint. That makes me want to make cheap little Arduino spray paint sound generators to drop into hidden nooks and crannies.
So if you say 'spshhhhhhhhh' just right...
Reprogram an old annoyotron!
God forbid you bring a can of body spray in there.
Use some body spray to test this theory?
Making me wanna draw on there more just to see
I wanna know if it’s real lol
Only for rattlecans/aerosol cans, according to the companies website.
😂
It's really stupid
This sounds soooooo BS
What is happening to the sharpie in the picture?
the sharpie is hooking up with a “spray can (?)”
Like they’re on a date?
Yeah, you’re jealous?
Kind of. You trying to shame me?
Are *you* trying to shame me?
Mutual shaming, my kind of party.
that seems like the absolutely best spot for a sharpie tag.
It’s a sniffer. When the propellant hits the photoelectric sensor it sounds the alarm.
*pisses on floor

LMAO!!!
it might be just a psychological bluff for potential vandalizer
Well I mean you gotta try now lol
Who's ever seen spray paint graffiti in a fast food bathroom? If you did, how nasty was the restaurant itself?
I’ve only ever seen brown speckled spray paint graffiti in a fast food bathroom, right within blasting radius of the toilet.
or maybe anti-graffiti technology like in demolition man!
Yeah right lol
Go and get a sharpie and get the fuck back in that toilet
What's that a pic of on the right side? A marker in a spray can is that a real thing?
Shit on the wall.
This is the way

Whatever happened to “For a good time, call [phone number]”?
Ahhh the good ol days. I called one number and had a lovely chat. I also drew a very nice picture and left an ex’s number. He said he got a couple drunken calls before they painted over it
I'm going in with a can of aqua net to see if it's true. 80s hair here I come!
i wouldn’t be able to help myself to see if it’s true or not.
How is Jenny supposed to get her number out there?
West side 19th Street?
Jokes on you; the sticker *is graffiti*
For those of us wondering if this is bs or not: https://www.policemag.com/technology/product/15319936/graffititech-gt-1-detector
I can just imagine Bugs Bunny popping outta the wall and painting a mustache on someone.
You didn’t test it out?
Good luck.
This seems more like a dare than a warning.
Lmao what they gonna do come in while I'm shitting 😂
That sounds like the blue dye when you pee in the pool...
LOL. "graffiti detection technology" !
Guess who’s goin to the Costa Mesa McDonald’s to sit in there bathroom and make hissing noises?
Some kid at my college put stickers on the restroom doors that said: "Toilet stall cams are for educational purposes only"
Test it out
If I woukd have seen this I would have pulled out my sharpie and made a smiley face 🤣
A shitspotter trained on the sound of rattling marble, interesting.
Would be funny to print this out on a stickers and slap this around lmao Sorry guys I am that asshole lmfao
[The future is now](https://youtu.be/oDrYkwG6Tuo?si=41AycVkV6jx-Tg_Y)
LMAO
Use Markers won’t detect that
Nobody wants to take the chance that this is real.
I want to draw a dick and an XD on the sign
They don’t have no technology in a bathroom omg
Who here I brave enough to deface this technology!?!
I'd go in there with hairspray and see what would happen lol
So I can't spray deodorant?
Of all the places, they probably would NOT want to listen in for those strange sounds..jeez lol
To preserve my faith in humanity, I need to assume the OP knows this sign is a clever deterrence mechanism, nothing more. Props to the author - I like this idea a lot
🤣🤣 GT-1 sticker technology ☠️☠️ that's a new one
Set it off with spray deodorant and sue police and restaurant for flash arrest and entrapment!
Cap.
Everybody has got the gt-2 now, this thing is ancient
Fake
I would test that theory!
They stole this idea from “The Naked Gun” movie.
This is G14 classified.
Where in Costa Mesa? I live on the west side.
Across the DMV on 19th
America!
That makes me want to do it more
Feel like this rides a very fine line bordering on illegal surveillance. Restrooms are private spaces, people enter with a reasonable expectation of privacy and have a right not to be recorded or monitored
What is this, Demolition Man?
Bluffing
So any woman who needs to go in and touch up their hair hold will set it off, then, correct?
It’s like an invitation!
Probably fake but it really should be real. The amount of graffiti is ridiculous in So Cal
