Artwork of an M Graffiti for Super Mario Sunshine
Graffiti is a paint-like substance that first appears in Super Mario Sunshine. It is similar to goop, although Graffiti can mainly be distinguished from how it is usually a sketch painted on flat surfaces, most often walls, usually to depict an image.
In Super Mario Sunshine[]
One type of graffiti that Shadow Mario can paint from his Magic Paintbrush are Rainbow Ms, which is tipped with graffiti. He is specifically seen doing this by painting it on to the Grand Pianta Statue. There is also a "raw" form that Shadow Mario uses to paint his infamous "M" signature, known as M Graffiti,[1] which also appears as a logo at the beginning of the game. Along with Shadow Mario's signature, there are also painted symbols that come in pairs, known as Paired Graffiti.[1] The symbols that appear are "×" (X Graffiti),[2] "○" (O Graffiti),[3] and "△" (Triangle Graffiti).[4]
Most graffiti is colored red, though green graffiti appears in Ricco Harbor, and black graffiti was used to deface the Shine Monument, as well as the bells inside Delfino Plaza's two bell-towers. When graffiti is sprayed long enough, it will be completely cleaned off the wall. After it is cleaned off, a Blue Coin will be released for Mario to collect (with the only two exceptions being the two graffiti "M" symbols on the sides of the water tanks at the Delfino Airstrip, which release only regular gold coins). In the case of paired symbols, when one symbol is cleaned off, the Blue Coin appears next to its matching symbol, and vice versa. If Mario does not collect the Blue Coin in time, it will disappear, and the graffiti he cleaned off will reappear. He must then backtrack and clean it off a second time to make the Blue Coin appear once again. Mario will earn a Shine Sprite for cleaning the graffiti off the Shine Monument and each of the two bells.
There is also ink goop on the wall near the crates where Gooper Blooper is fought for the first time in Ricco Harbor. It cannot be washed off, but it does not hurt Mario. The goop leaks out of the crates Gooper Blooper is in and runs down the wall into the water, so it is a type of slimy water.
Another type of graffiti appears during the first episode of Noki Bay, Uncork the Waterfall. This graffiti is pink, yellow, orange, and white, and several blotches of it are positioned at intervals along a tall cliff face near the starting point of the level. These goop blotches are shaped like various things relating to the sea, including a squid, a sailboat, a dolphin, a whale, an octopus, and a bird. This graffiti can be cleaned off by Mario, but it cannot hurt him. As Mario cleans the blotches off, platforms of varying sizes appear out of the cliff face, which he can then use to climb upward. Cleaning off all of this graffiti helps Mario reach the cork plugging the waterfall, where he has to defeat a Monty Mole in order to finish the episode.
Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury[]
Bowser Jr. painting on a graffiti spot. An electric goop-like texture is used while he paints.
Graffiti is prominently featured throughout the Bowser's Fury campaign. During the introductory cutscene, Mario comes across a black M Graffiti that transforms into a portal, taking him to Lake Lapcat. Throughout the islands of Lake Lapcat, ?-shaped graffiti appears on various walls and surfaces. When Bowser Jr. joins Mario, he can use his Magic Paintbrush to create other graffiti art in these spots, yielding a reward once complete. While painting, he produces paint colored and textured like electric goop. In single-player mode, the player must either use the touch cursor or press 
when next to a graffiti spot to send Bowser Jr. to investigate. In multiplayer, only the second player can paint graffiti by approaching a graffiti spot and pressing 
. Once a graffiti spot has been painted, it will shine briefly before the shine fades. The art will remain in place of the ? mark permanently, but if the current save file is reloaded, the art will appear in black and white. If Bowser Jr. approaches the spot again, he will repaint the art in color, producing the same effect.

In WarioWare Gold[]
In the Super Mario Sunshine microgame, F.L.U.D.D. is used to clean graffiti, acting as brown goop, off a building. This is changed from the original, in which fire had to be put out of a building.
