—Paint's Flavour Text, Kirby Super Star Ultra
Paint is a rare, one-use copy ability of Kirby's. It let's him spray color all over, causing damage to any foe on screen. As a side effect, certain bosses will be changed when this power is used against them.
Kirby has obtained Paint in just one episode of Kirby: Right Back at Ya!, who got it after inhaling one of Paint Roller's Paint Brushes. He came with a pair of roller skates, which could be a reference to the Paint Roller enemy that was in the episode. Like Cook before it, it became a normal ability rather than a one-use ability, and allowed him to paint things that became real. This is similar to the characters Ado and Adeleine.

[edit] Attacks/Abilities
| Move Name | Controls | Description | Element |
|---|---|---|---|
| Paint Out | B | Eating a Paint Ball from Marx Soul, Chameleo Arm, or Heavy Lobster grants the ability to use this one-time ability. Press B and Kirby will splash paint balls everywhere. This move will do damage, and will destroy every regular enemy on-screen instantly. Using this against Heavy Lobster or Chameleo Arm will re-color them (though for some strange reason, Chameleo Arm can still change his skin color as if he didn't get a single drop of paint on him). Also, if used on Heavy Lobster, one of Heavy Lobster's eyes will be damaged, and Heavy Lobster will become blind. | None |
[edit] Transformation Sequence
In his transformation sequence, Kirby dons the skates of Paint Roller. Next a similar purple hat falls on Kirby's head. After he takes out the paintbrush and skates across the screen and paints the screen in multiple colors.

[edit] Trivia
- In Kirby Super Star, Paint, along with the other one use abilities, Sleep, Crash and Cook (and the triple use ability, Mike), are the only Copy Abilities that can be obtained via inhaling whilst playing the Milky Way Wishes sub-game. (They also are the only abilities without Copy Essences Deluxe)
