Yes I'm serious. If there are warning signs surely it's up to the criminal if he wants to risk it.
People on here said I was wrong to put vandal paint on my meter cupboard door after vandals repeatedly kept tearing it from it's hinges.
I put the paint on anyway - along with a warning sign.
No trouble since!

I just read via google that it can be used for protection of private property.
FGS if it's on top of a fence it's not going to hurt any innocent person!!
An electrified door knob is very different as you well know.

All barbed wire, razor wire, or other sharp pointed material may only be used in the construction of a fence if it is at least seven (7) feet above ground level and not visible from any adjacent public street.

Using barbed/razor wire and broken glass in order to stop people getting into your home is not advisable. You are making yourself liable to civil action, if by doing this someone is injured, as you owe a duty of care to ensure that visitors to your property are reasonably safe. Odd as it may seem, you also owe a duty of care to trespassers.

If along the capping for the purposes of it being hi viz, then not a problem.
If along a face and hi viz not important, then not a problem with a sprayer.

Wait...are you talking about painting just the fence, or the wire itself?
