I have now had my airbrush for about 5 months thanks to Jozza.

This is my most recent body (3rd one)

Now i am looking at airbrushing my new fullface bike helmet and was wondering if anyone had done this using their airbrush?

If so, what was the result and what paint did you use?

That shell looks really nice [^]. And it's reminded me I've got your pics of your others to upload to some webspace, sorry I forgot, will sort it out for you soon [:I].

I'd be very careful about painting a helmet, as if you get the wrong sort of paint it can break down the plastic which the helmet is made of and render it useless in the event of a crash. That's why you also shouldn't stick stickers on a bike helmet, as some adhesives can do the same thing...

Cheers mate.

The paint i was going to use was Pactra as the laquer on the helmet mimicks lexan.

I was then going to put a coat of laquer over the top.

Im only using the helmet on a push bike.
