I didn't know there was such a thing as polystyrene primer; I always just mask super carefully! Will defo get some next time I'm doing this style of helmet! Awesome result BTW Martin.

[@gumstarr]

Hahaha. This guy is the school example of what happens when you inhale too much toxic paint fumes.

[@lesterroberts1628]

do not forget to shave your beard before applying face mask.

You're ridiculous man ...and ridiculously talented. What a great entertaining tutorial video

[@skyb1rd4]

I’m so glad our video popped up while researching this topic. You’re hilarious, knowledgeable and incredibly talented, you’ve definitely gained a subscriber right here!

[@petermitchell8831]

Awesome Martin. For years I have considered painting helmets but always too many questions. You have answered them all. I think the cheese and beer is definitely the clincher 😂. Keep them rolling. Love your work.

I am so glad this video came up. You saved me some grief.

[@SurvivorCarl]

Martin, your work is amazing, and I really loved the demonstration of safety and the use of proper primer 👍

[@BikeSeatPhilosopher]

One of your all-time great videos, Martin. I laughed out loud at this one, which is kinda strange sitting alone in front of my computer.

[@rhinographix]

Question: How much time are you letting each round of paint cure before you start masking for the next round of paint? Great videos, very informative.

[@jaypax6616]

I have the same question 😅

[@GM-yq9du]

American under 21… a glass of milk 😂 Too funny. Brilliant tutorial. I wish work presentations were as interesting as this! Thanks for answering all my questions. Love your energy ❤

Good point, the realistic amount of time it takes to do it. It's one of the one thing which is underestimated. The time. Cheers.

How long did you wait before you masked the paint you just sprayed?

five to ten

You are best

[@5ilentHunter]

Einwandfrei, hat mich sehr unterhalten. Mach weiter so :)

[@GM-yq9du]

I can see a primer for the polystyrene in your links, but not for the plastic helmet. Please can you advise what primer to use? I’m in the UK and can only seem to get the 2K final coat on Amazon. Any suggestions for alternative Neon orange paint for my POC helmet please?

[@chrisv69]

Need some cheese and wine now.... Great video Martin!

[@franciscomartins1673]

Muito bonito esse capacete, com essa customisaçao de cores

[@arondaehnert]

1:45 die Socke mit den Augen :D (Eddy !) Deine Videos sind einfach Mega ! Informativ und in einer Art, dass es nie langweilig wird. Top !! Was ich ebenfalls richtig gut finde. Die Links für EU und US. Eigentlich kaum der Rede wert aber sowas machen auch nur wenige. Die Sicherheitshinweise und das Beispiel ist sehr hilfreich , es gibt sicherlich viele die genau dort ihren Helm zerstören . Das Ergebnis ist wie immer ein absoluter Hit!

[@MTBTrailRider]

So... if you mask the polystyrene properly... why would you still need a polystyrene primer? Or is it "just in case"??

[@ETOE]

Because of all the keyboard warriors who want to see such a primer, and if not they give permanent fire until the keyboard starts to burn.

[@jbryand101b]

That’s cool. Thanks 🙏

[@sitihoren]

Question: No sanding between primer- color and color- clear coat? Thanks for the video! We were waiting for something like this!!!

[@ETOE]

No the AC colors stick without sanding.

[@slava_trushkin]

@@ETOE AC = Acrylic? (probably seems obvious, but need to make sure)

[@vipervermosa2893]

Hope you show some skills in painting bike rims. Especially color yellow.

[@abdulgapurtotoh6785]

Amazing idea 😅♥️

[@KONTRAPodcast]

Great video! If you were doing a solid white paint for the helmet (cover and styrofoam as well) would you just cover up the plastic parts and prepare + primer + paint + finish everything?

[@mbernhardt78]

Awesome!

So, bottom line, if you use the polystyrene primer no matter what, you should be safe?

[@oneworld2642]

Hahaha .... so funny about the eagle 😂😂

[@sebastianllanos3052]

Excellent video!!!!!!!, I just have a small question with the scoff pad, that step would be the same with a 1000 sad paper?

[@dinomaskot90]

Considering that helmet shell is plastic, would it be better to use plastic primer, or is the Polystyrene better choice for piece of mind? Thank you. I love your videos.

[@MegaMag1973]

I love your videos. Question...did you ever paint saddle. To give a new look.

Hello after you prime , how long do you have to wait before you can start spraying painting?

DId he say degrease the helmet before you spray it? If her did how do you degrease it?

You deserve to have the cheese and the glass of wine. Great helmet. Even if you will look like a parrot wearing it, ha! ha! A huge talent beneath the jokes. Just cleaning up and trying to restorate a Giant bike model The Stiletto lowrider. Have you ever done a lowrider cruiser style bike. Would love to see what paint job you could come up with. Thank you for sharing your talent and creativity :))

Hi, is it possible to paint the thongs / lashs of the helmet ? Mine are green and I'd like them grey or black

[@GoldenRNB]

This guy is insane but I love it HAHAHAH

[@nunofpinto11]

I noticed you always sand the primer in your other videos. The polystyrene primer does not need to be sanded first before applying color ?

[@swedenskanemtb3789]

Can i use this primer for Troy Lee design stage helmet? It is made out of Fiber reinforced Polylite shell

[@lecobaiano32]

Martin I just saw this explanatory video of you how to paint a helmet, but I have a Styrofoam Helmet, but there is one but its mark is as if it were glued with a type of plastic only that I would like to paint the Styrofoam now without attacking the Styrofoam of Capecete, applying Primer would be a good protection before applying the paint, what can you do about it? thank you

[@cobaltnightsky]

you should do a video with Peter from "Peter Draws" 😂

[@ryansantiago941]

Yeah let’s test by loading 20 thick layers in a single coat, juuuuust like when actually painting the real helmet. Also you can spray about 24” away to keep the aerosol from contacting the polystyrene.

[@ivorpeachey4366]

Hi Martin you never mention orange peel problems after clear coat

[@ETOE]

I have no orange peel problems. Apply more clearcoat if you have orange peel and/or do better preparation of the primers and basecoats if you have theese problems.

[@mcfc.artist]

Does any sandpaper work

[@ETOE]

Only the grades I mention in the video.

[@walterbonilla196]

...I'm a freaking parrot, buahahahahahah! Awesome video and awesome job!

Brilliant video, hilarious and informative! Can I ask if you want apply decals, as part of the design, if this should be before or after the final clear coat? Thank you!

[@ETOE]

You can do them before and also after the clear coat as you like.

[@alexharris2313]

@@ETOE thank you

[@amenrx1]

Great video, and very informative! Heres a question. I want to paint my helmet the same color as my bike frame, can i use a spray paint for bicycles on top of the polystyrene primer, or do i have to use specific paints from the same brand as the primer??

[@ETOE]

You have to use paints which fit the shell of the helmet.

[@silcas]

Why the primer? You already put masking tape on the polystyrene

Hi Martin, awesome work as always, quick question, how long do you leave the paint to dry before you remove the masking tape/Vinyl Decals?

[@ETOE]

one to three minutes

[@silviorapela5981]

@@ETOE If you leave it longer, do you run the risk of lifting the paint along with the tape? GRACIAS
