check with Griffin there

the Altmann has revised grey buttons, easy to remove, the front decals/stickers are now light grey, so is the 2 rear ones cheers

Chris, pm me cheers

the actual colour for the bolts is a off white/bone but light grey is how they appear on film so thats the go. cheers

PM me for a assembled helmet

spray is better, brush will leave "lines" as laquaer dries fast. if you have a spray gun set up, the mix of paint to thinner is 50/50. use about 40-50psi, spray about 12-18inchs from the surface and one coat at a time, wait till its dry, dont try to cover all at once ,3-5coats will be needed. same rule for a pressure pac can, maybe more caots as cans paints are thin in application try another surface before you paint your helmet, an old car part.door or something like that, practice first. good luck

Hi, use an acrylic laquer, automotive grade, easy to use, easy to touch up, easy to fix. fast to dry. this wont mix with enamels. good luck

A fan who became a licencee BUT is still a fan

http://forum.bikerscout.net/index.php?showtopic=10270 try this set up

excellent info here http://forum.bikerscout.net/index.php?showtopic=10737

use automotive grade masking tape, dont paint to thick and wait for the paint to dry, also press the tape down a few times before painting, best tape is the one used for pin stripeing an airbrush is ideal

depends on the maker " I will be having the helmet pre-assembled, will that require trimming and sanding as well? " Altmann's is ready to go

guess I should have said "scout forum"..... or anyone looking to be a scout

Altmanns only available to the Scouts.

Hmmm, problems with the visor and pivot/side bolt points ,Altmanns worked this out in 1997. I wonder if Don Post had this same problem years ago with their fibreglass scout.

I'll get the hang of these quotes..........Scouts Honour!

might actually work better if the velcro is on the underside of the armour as Ammonites suggested, pouchs would always be in the right position then?, either way its good

sow a 2inch strip at the top of the pouch,from one side to the other, this will sit up under the armour, it wont be seen there, sow 2 inch velcro, white, to this and the cumberbun, this will allow you to remove for washing

Altmanns are a vac formed bucket, all plastic, visor is "heat formed" 3mm dark clear acrylic,

Chef, try pumping some air pressure into your form, you will hear a slight "crack" sound, this is the plastic being lifted off the mold, this should help, cheers

like Chef said, get the surface flat, try the heat thing first, that will flatten out the surface, has for me

polyurethane is a 2part paint, paint and a hardener to chemically dry the paint making the paint very hard and brittle on a flexible surface.usually takes 3 days to completely harden you should be able to use an acrylic(plastic) laquer to paint over repairs, use an epoxy primer then the paint please read all instructions on the cans/tins

looks like the gel coat, you can get gel coat repair kits/liquid as well as fibreglass repair kits. see if its gel coat or the fibreglass thats cracked
