Is the ONE4ALL durable and buff-proof? Yes- it's fairly durable and buff-proof, depending on what you are writing on. It's good paint, I've only noticed problems painting on slick plastic- and even that wasn't too bad. Is it the best, most economical choice for you? Hard to say.. The £2 bottles are probably the 30ml ones. With a mop you could blow through that in a hurry.
True, you can make your own by buying a pack of ballpoint pens, removing the innards, soaking them in alcohol, and voila- you've made your own ink! Sorta. Also, it takes a long amount of time, you're still spending money on pens and alcohol, you waste a bunch of plastic, and the results are sub-par. You've got to consider: what's your time worth? Even if you're panhandling, the amount of time you spend fucking around with this stuff you would have earned more than enough money to simply buy yourself a big bottle of arguably the best shit: Molotow Coversall or Speedflow. It writes on anything, really good flow, and after it dries it's really hard to remove. It's almost like, it was designed for bombing or something...
If you want to be cheap, and you want to shop at pound/dollar stores, my other recommendation would be to look into India ink that is used for Japanese Sumi-e painting. I picked up a 180ml bottle for a couple bucks at a Daiso here in the states. If you have Japanese discount stores in your area that might be worth a try. Here's an Amazon link to the type that I purchased (more money than I paid, but still pretty cheap):

First things first; don't host an album on your google account. I suggest you use imgur.com for a little bit of anonymity, but judging by your Username I'm not sure that you care.
now that I've gotten that out my critiques for you are as following:
what I feel like a lot of people who visit this site don't realize is that super over the top stylized handstyle are all planned out and came to fruition after 100's of hours of trial and error and 100's upon 100's of notebooks that are all burned with just the nastiest handstlyes. Also I read in this book about Chaz Bojorquez that you should approach handstyles as you would approach calligraphy: you should spend most of your time visualizing the strokes you make in your head and doing practice strokes all before your pen touches the paper. This is why we chant the sub mantra so much " practice straight letters before you go on to something wild." They will help you visualize that when you stretch that bottom loop of a R all the way back to your vertical post you just made a B.
Let me give you a little overveiw of my process when I'm developing a handstyle.
what I like to do is that I burn thru notebooks practicing different variations of the word; and sometimes it changes to a completely new word. What im looking for is how the word looks as a whole. Is it leaning too much to one side, are the letter the same size, do they have the same kerning as the others, does it have the same font, and more. Once I've "burned" through my first "burner books" I pick up another "burner book" and just burn it with the one style I've decided was the coolest.
This is going to be a long process and you wont ever be as good as you want to be, just don't give up when you aren't producing stuff you think you could do better
I'm sure you can find the dot paper at an office or art store but I'd recommend this notebook on Amazon. As far as bending bars, this (specifically the one about W) is what I used to teach myself to begin with. There's also this in the sidebar, which is very helpful and on the same topic.

Such a good post! Yeah there are many styles/movements/cultures in graffiti and I know there are a lot of separate websites and books id recommend, but I cant think of anything compiled in one place.
Here are some good general knowledge links:
Style Wars - Doc that inspired a generation of writers.
https://youtu.be/f9KxbaSU-Eo
History of American Graffiti - This book is a bible. Outlines history and breaks up style by city.

Maybe ill compile a bigger list later. You wont find a good answer to your question, i suppose the style you posted would be a throw-up, cant get more specific really.
Anyone know if this is armour etch?

And listings for the products if anyone want to buy some and draw with the same quality.

If that's as far as you've got in "years" then you need to approach the craft from a different angle. Study typography (for letter structure) and architecture (for learning how to draw).
Two books worth reading:
