Term: aerosol paint

Aerosol paint, also known as spray paint, is a type of paint that is stored in a pressurized can and released in a fine mist when the nozzle is pressed. It allows for quick, even application of paint without the need for brushes or rollers. Aerosol paint is commonly used for touch-ups, graffiti, stenciling, automotive work, and various DIY or professional painting projects. It typically contains pigments, solvents, and propellants, and is available in a wide range of colours and finishes. In Australia, aerosol paints are regulated due to their potential for misuse (e.g., graffiti vandalism), and in some states, their sale to minors is restricted.
