[@cesarortega802]

Great video as always. Of course they can skip the prep... but don’t expect the same result!

[@mannygiroux3491]

Great price for 2 helmets. Cool looking color. Looks like car on fiber.

[@Shauncat1]

The legend in customizing indeed

[@franciscoapellido8182]

Perfect as always, Martin. 👌🏼

[@mariorivero8441]

Excellent Martin! Great tips

[@omerbicici4213]

Good job. Is it possible to paint the old shifters. For example shimano 6600 sti shifters. Thanks

[@logic6737]

Can you do a tutorial on painting chrome rose gold? Or any type of chrome?

[@ETOE]

Yes someday if somebody payes for it.

[@fergusdenoon1255]

great advice at the end of the video.

[@redjeraldbernas7742]

Nicee work Who's watching here from Philippines?

[@MrSWUSH]

Great job and informative!! Could you do a camo paint job, something with many overlapping colors? Im not sure how to approach this project. Please help lol

[@calebsemibold]

Thanks for doing these. Super helpful.

[@joacimlindh8179]

Have you ever tried sand blasting instead of wet sandpaper? If so, is it any differensces in result?

[@joriswijnen4142]

Great work. Which nozzle sizes are you using? Is it the same for bicycle frames? Gr, Joris

[@dobes.dominik]

This music fits so well :)

[@jimmyrohde5304]

Dude! Nice work.

[@ETOE]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@revolutronic]

if you don´t want to do the prepwork, you shouldn´t paint anything! so sieht´s aus!

[@charliehunter3564]

Hi Martin! Could you do a video about buffing and polishing clear coat after finishing a paint job? Thanks!

[@ETOE]

Just learn how to paint and you need no buffing.

[@harrymaccycling]

Hey great video! Would you always suggest water based paints for helmets?

[@ETOE]

Thanks and no, not only. Just check my brush and pencil helmet videos as well. I will do also a marker video in the near future.

[@harrymaccycling]

@@ETOE thanks boss man 😎

[@joaonunes6642]

Hey Martin, I’m watching this as I’m sanding the exact same helmet for a paint job. I’ll be using spray max primer, but you’ve linked an adhesion promoter in the description. Is this something you spray over the primer before the paint? Many thanks!

[@ETOE]

I don't use Spray Max on lexan helmets cause in my opinion it's too risky.

[@joaonunes6642]

@@ETOE noted! Thanks for your help.

[@mbs6585]

can you do a video on painting a field hockey stick maybe a spray can paint job on a cheap one and a pro one on a higher end model

[@ETOE]

If someone sends all the material and stuff yes.

[@cliffcox7643]

Question.. do you think a spray blaster will be quicker than hand sanding.?

[@ETOE]

Yes it blasts your helmet very quick in the trash can.

[@tonyparkin3379]

I use krylon flat spray paint. Use it on rifles too.

[@texasermd1]

Very nice work!

[@harold6177]

Any tips for paint dripping and how to avoid it?

[@cornelius883]

Wieder mal ein super Video, Martin. Vielen Dank! machst du den Klarlack auch 10min nach der Farbe drauf oder vergeht da mehr Zeit zum aushärten?

[@ETOE]

Depends on your environment, temperature and humidity.

[@tlarent6330]

Great painting techniques! Do you ever repaint vintage steel bike frames with all those little contrasting details?

[@ETOE]

Yes in the past. But it`s horrible bad payed.

[@ishankelkar4347]

That will go well with the Peter sagan s works tarmac sl 7 range of golden black bikes

[@NeouItier]

What about the brand or any decoration we can have on the new paint? 😉

[@ETOE]

My branding iron is out of service.

[@ricbas4470]

Question: is there a maximum time needed before removing the masking tape? have you had any issues like when the masking tape curls up when paint is applied?

[@ETOE]

No, depends on your environment, temperature and humidity.

[@ricbas4470]

@@ETOE oh.. that is why my design got messed up.. it would have been better if I used stickers right?.. Anyways, thanks a lot! and excellent work as always.. currently doing DIY with spray cans from the Philippines..

[@duMaurier15]

light spray it 2-3 times, light spray again with clear coat 2-3 times.. let it dry after 24 hours and peel. Peel slowly. if you notice you are peeling and the paint is peeling with the tape then cut with exacto knife/razor.

[@martinchoJz]

Que tipo de pintura utiliza?

[@MyKwoon]

Wich 3m filters do you use? Different ones for different kind of paint? Tks I have a 3m 6200 respirator with 6057 gas filters with no particules filters. Also.. Wich kind of primer in a can to paint a carbon fiber helmet where I want to see the carbon in some places? (plàstic primer of montana pro colors?)

[@ETOE]

Please use particle filters as well when doing paint work!

[@manup1931]

Braucht man beim Lackieren eigentlich kein Augenschutz? Also ich frag mich das immer, ob die Farbpartikel nicht ins Auge gehen können

[@ETOE]

Use a full face mask if you are not sure.

[@thealohahour3234]

Aloha Martin, love your videos - quick question, I noticed you used polystyrene friendly Montana primer on one helmet, then other helmets you use plastic primer. I’m painting a bike helmet and masking all polystyrene areas - so my question is, which primer is better? Mahalo from Hawaii!

[@ETOE]

The one which fits the chemical igredients of your helmet shell. Best is, ask the producer of the helmet which chemicals are used and which fit your primer.

[@alfranto007]

Que haces con la piel de naranja )

[@ResepFavorite]

Wow is very good 👍

[@Beng12952]

Hi there, would be willing to paint a Kask cycling helmet in fluorescent orange if I sent it to you? If so can I email you? Many thanks.

[@ETOE]

@@Beng12952 sure I can do that.

[@MrAnimal1971]

Prep is everything. "The devil is in the details"

Hello i'm from indonesia

[@mountainbiker9330]

I want to know how professional artists charge their customers without respect to the brand or colors applied to the subject?

[@wasupwitdat1mofiki94]

You could probably buy 4 or 5 premium helmets for the price of that paint job.

[@partybather]

Oh dude, you turned the helmet around, you didnt just go arnoud it while spraying. JK, pretty cool helmet design.

[@krishnaparmer6100]

I had bought a different helmet on Amazon at the beginning of this summer for my big headed daughter to wear while bicycling and scootering. kzbin.infoUgkx0ipcYkXV-2YCp_cBN3HLfzR_OoD0HQYx Well it was WAY too big and not adjustable at all. Previously we had really expensive but adjustable helmets from the local bike store and I didn't really want to pay $50 again for another helmet. I searched and was fairly sure from the reviews that this helmet was what I was looking for- and it was! The pads inside are comfortable, the rim in front provides a bit of shade, but most of all for me there is the dial adjuster in the back which allows for a really secure fit on my daughters head. It seems like it will fit for a few years too which makes me even happier! She loves the pattern and I might end up buying another one for her twin sister (who has a much smaller head!)I definitely recommend this helmet. My daughter is 5 but has a big head. Her twin sister could fit in this one as well but it's a bit big.

[@CapitalAreaBuildingSolutionGro]

Can I just pay you to paint a helmet for me

[@ETOE]

Yes

[@neilchapman9266]

he paid to buy the helmet, spent $80 plus for the paint and his time to paint it. Surely it would have been cheaper to go out and buy a gold coloured helmet in the first place.

[@khaki.shorts]

They don't sell kask protone in gold, maybe he really wanted this particular helmet.

[@workout_training2829]

Took a perfectly beautiful helmet and murdered it 😰

[@moungrithykiryream2385]

has ha......

[@nishieda]

The shell of EVERY road helmets is the bullet*proof Polycarbonate.... How would you afraid to destroy it with 2K spray or any sprays?

[@ETOE]

Just try it and you know it when the shell starts to crackle.

[@HDucky60]

Watch his other video painting helmet and you will know what happens to the foam.

[@nishieda]

S Howard: not the foam!

[@wasupwitdat1mofiki94]

Don't know why I watched this video, I never wear a helmet.

[@Perry155]

a little bit patronising.. enjoy your content but I just feel spoken down on whenever I watch the entirety of a video so usually I'll just skip to the bits where the actual painting takes place

[@SteezeShop]

He does talk down on people but it’s all helpful because it’s easy to make stupid mistakes when painting and he’s trying to help people prevent those if possible.

[@BlueMoonLightDreams]

i disagree with u my friend. YES, sanding old paint job for job can help. But it wont look any better than painting over new, UNLESS u are doing on a helmet u have been using already. then u need to give a good cleaning before painting. PAINTING over its pain wont make it look any worse, unless u use shit cheap pain. I have done it couple of times, my pain has not chipped and it has stayed shiny through the yrs.
