Spraying A Helmet


Si-man

Recommended Posts

Just wondered if anybody knew what sort of paint I would have to use if to paint my helmet??

Is a TSG pissy potty and the laquer has come off where I took off some old stickers and I want to freshen it up.

Was thinking of using airfix model spray, not sure if it will weaken the plastic though.

Any help much appreciated

I'd use airfix stuff if I was you, like the shizzle you spray onto model car shells and things (Y)

You need something like that because otherwise it will crack and flake, I believe spray for models has some amount of silicone or something in it to allow flex (Y)

Rite, going to go to the model shop in town tomorrow and buy some I think.

Will tell you what happens when I finish it lol

If it f**ks up then it f**ks up. Atleast then you all know not to copy lol

Yea this may be true but in reality its actually the polystyrene packaging which is designed to compress on impact thus taking it out of your head. Like the engine protects your legs in a car accident, to 0.5mm plastic on the outside......... not going to save your skull in any aspect to be honest
