I had my KRINK ready to "KRINK" my new HP Laptop DV7, but my baby boy spilled half of the bottle on the cover of my laptop. Does someone know if its removable? or do I need to order a new LCD cover and replace it? it looks horrible.... Any that could remove it would be great..

Is krink a german word for orange juice or drink?

As a Krink enthusiast, I can honestly say that short of using a power washer on your laptop (you know, the pressurized hose they use to clean graffiti that is similar to what they use at the car wash), there is little chance that you'll get it off without having to use something that will take a huge amount of time and/or make your laptop look like you just took sandpaper to it, and even then, you'll never get it all off. Up to you to judge what your time is worth, but even if you get some of it off, that shit will never come out of the nooks and crannies.

Open Krink around children? Baaaaaaaad idea.


You could try goof off or nail polish remover (I wouldn't), but anything harsher than rubbing alcohol is going to give your laptop that "new chemical burn" look. Hate to say it, but new LCD cover is probably the way to go, if it's not to expensive.

Krink is a permanent drip-style graffiti tool that is popular for giving that east-coast feel to graffiti tags. In the instances where I've seen it taken off, it either involves a few 100 PSI of water pressure or super-harsh chemicals, but most people have no choice than to paint over it.

THAT, is bad graff.

Yeah, I've seen better (that was one of the first pics I saw on google, so I used it), but if you've never seen Krink, that pic is as good as any to give you an idea of what I'm talking about.

Spraypaint drip in a marker format, essentially.

Damn man, I think you are out of lick, Krink is some serious bizz.
