Pepper spray is illegal in the Netherlands. Fortunately, there is a good - perhaps even better - alternative!

The TIW Defense Spray actually works in the same way as pepper spray. You spray the spray into the face of your attacker, making it disorientated. The spray starts to foam as soon as the face (the skin) of your attacker is hit. This will take away the view and the attacker will rub his or her eyes, thereby enhancing the effect.

The spray has - compared to pepper spray - the advantage that the colorant remains visible on the face of your attacker for a few days. The attacker is therefore easier to recognize and therefore better traced by the police.
