flyingbrick Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 Hi all. Does anyone here paint helmets? Do people worry about the type of paint they are using and how it might affect the shell? I'm pretty keen to go with "she'll be right mate" but keen to hear opinions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adoom Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 AFAIK, if it's for motorsports, a painted helmet will fail scrutineering. I could be wrong... but you did say "opinions". 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adoom Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 " (i) ABS and Polycarbonate helmets shall not be painted, and (ii) Composite shell helmets may only be painted with a paint approved by the helmet manufacturer, and " https://manual.motorsport.org.nz/index.php/knowledgebase/36-2-01a-schedule-a-1/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~Slideways~ Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 I guess they are trying to avoid people bogging up their crash damaged helmet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
