Most of the UK began rolling out PAVA when I was still in the force in 2009, I think south yorks was one of the first to use it.
ASP's back then were anodised aluminium, or polished, at least that's what we were told, a quick google tells me they used an alloy and offer it in both materials these days, so I can't actually comment on the accuracy of the details provided back then. So I guess we were both right/wrong at the same time.
Not to be picky but they yell ''SPRAY'' no mention of CS.
Just for curiosities sake I will say from personal experience (you get them used on you as part of the training process) CS is incredibly uncomfortable and irritating, but not really incapacitating apart from the fact you can't see. PAVA is most definitely in my opinion the more painful option, and also the friendlier one, CS can reactivate especially if you decide to take a warm shower after a faceful of it, and tends to clear the sinuses rather well. I'd also add I never came across a situation where people skills couldn't resolve a situation, that or a sufficiently large stick to work as a deterrent from silliness.
