I’m replacing a visor in my scout trooper helmet.  Can I use a heat gun or a hair dryer?   Thanks

Yes.  I’m using heat to bend the replacement visor to better fit my face plate.  I already removed my old visor.

If you're using the welding shield that many of us use, then know that it's pretty heat resistant -- after all, it's for welding! 😁

I didn't have much luck with the hair dryer, so I used a heat gun to help bend mine a bit. Like with all things heat gun related, it does take some finesse to not go too far and melt it though.
