Aerospray PG
The Aerospray PG is a main weapon in Splatoon and Splatoon 2. The Aerospray PG fires quick bursts, so its user can cover a relatively large area with ink in a short time. It is also a short-range weapon, so it will make quick work of nearby targets.

Trivia
- The Aerospray PG appears to be designed after an aerograph, a type of airbrush.
- The Aerospray PG, along with its alternates, the Aerospray MG and Aerospray RG and the Inkbrush, Inkbrush Nouveau and Permanent Inkbrush, are the only weapons that require 5 hits in order to splat an opponent.
- The "PG" in this weapon's name likely stands for "Perfect Grade", referencing Bandai's line of 1:60 scale model kits for the anime Mobile Suit Gundam.
- This is because it is common for model kits to be painted with an airbrush and because Gundam models are extremely popular in Japan.
- Damage Up can prove useful on this weapon. With a full set, the player will need to land a direct hit with a Burst Bomb followed by one hit instead of two.
