Just paint the outside and top with Anti-vandal paint - the local council
will probably be able to tell you where to get it. Really messy stuff and
takes ages to wash out.


Thanks Elise.

Says "SURFACE WHICH APPEARS NORMAL......When VANDALENE is applied according
to the instructions, coated surfaces appear normal but will remain soft and
slippery for several years."

Sounds like great stuff Im going to look into it further...thanks.

Also anyone know what the legal ramifications are when using this? I mean
will i get a solicitors letter from one of the scumbags saying " you have
ruined my clients clothes" etc etc and therefore be liable for paying
damages?

Post a warning sign. Depending on your local ordinances, that may be
sufficient to avoid any sort of liability.

Dunno, but if you ask in uk.legal they will.

I was thinking of the anti burgular grease paint. Takes 10 yrs to dry or
something. Just put a sign up saying Burgular paint (anti vandal or
whatever) no liability accepted for injuries or damage, which result from
sitting, climbing or using this wall.

You can make your own non-drying paint just by mixing a little motor oil
into any acrylic paint. It will NEVER dry thereafter.

IIRC correctly "Burgular Paint" is a particularly nasty goop that appears to be
similar to tar in nature, but never dries out. Ran across it in England once.
Unless you carry a disposable rug with you, it's a pretty effective means of
keeping people away.

And maybe they would be grateful enough to teach you how to spell
burglar :-)

Watching one of those lets break into someone's house and see how they feel
show iirc you need to have at least a sign stating that damage will be done,
and no liability taken for it. No trespassing could mean anything, and you
would get problems if you accidentally shot, glued, electrocuted some
passer-by. Same with Dogs. You need to have a warning up. In the day of
suing everyone, cover yourself properly.

The burglar grease made me think of something that happened to us. Living on
a very close and built in estate there was always problems between kids
running riot along the back garden walls, and in most cases also climbing
into the garden.

One kid was particularly bad, despite telling him to get out, go away he
always came back, and would come into the garden. So mum put this burglar
paint on the inside top of the wall. One day later a very irate mother, 1
sheepish looking son knocking on the door. We actually took her to see the
wall, and that the only way he could have gotten it on himself was by
trespassing i.e. climbing into our garden. Needless to say nowt happened,
and we never saw the kid near the house again. The only reason that was, was
because she couldn't deny what she saw. Asking her prior wouldn't have made
a difference, It's the *my son wouldn't* syndrome.

Oh and also photographing does the trick too. One lad who was hassling us,
messing around in the front garden, throwing stuff at the doors and windows.
Mum ran out there with a camera and took a picture of him at it. Again never
saw him again. Was always worried about the picture. Shame he didn't know
there wasn't any film in the camera anyway!

I ouce took photos of kids hanging around and was threatened by one of the
parents for taking them, I asked the police later and taking photos of
children without parental consent is a very grey area

But there is a big difference between taking photos of kids who are just
hanging aroun and taking photos of someone who is commiting an offence.

I believe it relates a) to children and b) who owns the land they are on

So where does that put people, who operate CCTV cameras?
