Brilliant! I love that you just show your painting as it happens - even the bits which always look crap until it all comes together and you're suddenly "oh, wow!"

Thank you Iron Gordon. ps. the list of products in the description is excellent and you even used pretty much the exact same helmet I have(!) One thing I saw on a less impressive vid was a note to say to mask out the safety markings (like the ECE or Kitemark numbers here in the UK).

Your art is pretty sick dude! Some advice, don’t be afraid to go thick with that clear, except for the first coat. A lot of people are scared to. If you do that you’ll have a lot less orange peel and texture and it’ll lay down smooooth. May still need a good wet sanding and buffing though.

The texture adds to the realism.

After clear coating it, wait untill the clear coat is hard, sandpaper it and clear coat it again. But clear coating from a spray can is always a bit less glossy/shiny then the traditional way. 😃 but your skills are good 👍🏻 keep it up.

Good stuff! I also am very careful about the type of paint I use on helmets, esp polycarb ones. I use a water-based primer after the sanding part and then use water-based airbrush paints for design- and end with the same 2K Spray Max that you used. You make it look so easy though..takes me much much longer with prep and even thinking of the design. I have never used lettering paint and recently I have seen many folks, including you, use it. Next project- lettering paint! :D Thanks again for the video!

It's the fumes and overspray from the solvent paints that cause the issue, not just the paint itself. The OEM's use a solvent based paint on the shell of the helmet which is fine, but if the foam gets degraded from the fumes the helmet will look fine when it has actually been compromised.

@FrankPapadakis

I'll add, OEM's paint their helmets before the protective foam is assembled into the helmet. You can paint directly on the helmet, that's how a oem will apply paint.

Mr. Iron Gordon, I am in the process of painting one of my existing helmets but based on my research, I see a lot of warnings against using most any spray paints for their possible damage to the helmet's outer layer. Were the Rustoleum paints you used not damaging? Thank you.

@IronGordon

4 жыл бұрын

I researched it out as well because I heard the same warnings. But all those warnings weren't backed by any kind of data or research, so it may be a lot of perpetuated bias toward the concept of spray painting a helmet. Polycarbonate doesn't respond well to Acetone, which is used in spray paint as a carrier for pigment. However if the helmet is painted from the factory and your spray paint never touches the polycarbonate then I am unsure of why there would be an issue. Also the spray paint should never touch the foam liner. But I'm not claiming this is safe, I don't know if its safe, I am not a scientist HA! Paint within your comfort zone

It brought back the memory when I seen this video. When I was taught not to paint them... We had a guy that was going to paint his helmet. The instructor seen him about to paint it, and rushed over and said very sternly not to do that because it can weaken the helmet. Maybe a week later the guy laid his bike down, bounced his helmet off the ground, got tons of road rash on his forearms and legs, but nothing deadly. The helmet took the damage and not his head. Probably saved his life or at least saved him from brain damage. It was lucky the teacher was paying attention that day.

Yeah people kind of like to regurgitate some vague advice about that. Here's what I've learned. Do not let spray paint or solvent touch the foam liner of the helmet. It melts the foam which is critical to the crash protection of a helmet. Tape off all your vents and any hole in the helmet to avoid that. When painting over an existing paint job. Sand the old paint thoroughly, but do not sand through the old paint so far that you hit the raw shell of the helmet. Solvents found in spray paint could damage the integrity of the shell depending on what the shell is made of. All that being said I am not an expert, that is what I have learned so far and you should do your own research before attempting to modify any safety device. Hope that helps

thats a true master piece my friend...
