These new paints are too easy for city crews to powerwash off because it's still wet on top of the already dried paint.

As much as it makes a dramatic statement to paint over it, people would be better off attacking the yellow BLM letter with paint thinner or stripper so that they gets ruined. Then it's not something the average city worker can just easily fix.

Paint chemist here! Traffic paint dries hella fast (5ish mins or less to be at least partially dry) and is super hard to get off asphalt. Dryfall ceiling paint dries instantly, it’s used for painting ceilings so it doesn’t drip on the floor. They make it in black too.
