Waterslide Decal Question


Nostromo

Recommended Posts

The trapezoid waterslide decals on my scout helmet are already taking a beating. Fixed the first scratches with paint pens but it’s happened again in short order. Lacquer protectant was advised in older posts. Anyone had success with that method and is a particular variety or brand recommended?

Very satisfied with the armor maker and they kindly provided replacement decals but I worry it won’t be sustainable to replace them so frequently.

Where'd you get the helmet from? As far as I know, RS is the only one who offers waterside decals with their helmets.

A clearcoat will protect the decals to a point, though I recommend you do some careful masking around the decal edges first. 

Rustoleum painters touch semi glass clear coat should work, but be careful when spraying. Too heavy of a coat at once can cause crackling or bubbling issues.
