Amateurs. You don't spray paint them, they'll just clean it off.
What you do, is place a stencil with “fuck Elon” on them, spray rust protective clear lacquer over the general area, and remove the stencil.
They won't notice until the next time it rains, when the words will show up in bright rust orange, much more harder to remove than any spray paint, and much harder to trace to you.
A devilishly devious plan sir.
you're a wily one
Seems like an awful lot of work when a can of expanding foam squirted in the right places will disable most anything mechanical and is much more difficult to remove.
The point isn't to disable them, it's to write “fuck Elon” on them. 🤷♂️
(Plus, they're A.— electric vehicles, so not that many mechanical bits to disable, B.— Teslas, so they already do a pretty good job of getting disabled all by themselves, and C.— cybertrucks, so they already come pretty pre-disabled by design, the poor things.)
Truly a truck for the do-it-yourselfer!
