Helmet Beautifying
We are in the process of getting my girlfriend a new helmet and she is quite the fan of houndstooth print. Are there any options for getting the helmet vinyl wrapped or something like that without painting? I know I should ask a local vinyl company, but im also looking to find if there is maybe something specific for helmets.
Thanks, George

Well wrapping is a good solution. An alternative takes longer, but you could easily have a pattern die-cut or even hand-cut out the houndstooth shapes yourself and apply them individually using vinyl decal stock. You can control the size of the pattern, is the especially nice part.
I actually recently did this to one of my black helmets with the reversing arrow optical illusion with black reflective tape but larger than this shows.  It's been a long winter. But the result turned out pretty cool. Last edited by Sideshow_S; 04-12-2013 at 09:40 PM.. |
