I kept it to a thin line of flames around the base of the helmet, so there wasn't much wrinkling. But yeah, a full helmet wrap would be very tedious. Plus a little obnoxious to have the whole freakin' head reflective at night.

You should have said you wanted some reflective! We've got miles of the crap from our highway sign days... There are many grades of reflective, and that solas isn't as pliable as some of the stuff we've got. The black vinyl I used will wrap nicely, but still not enough to do a helmet. The reflective isn't as pliable, but would still be better than what you used, albeit slightly less reflective.
This doesn't have that honeycomb pattern.... More bendy.
