Ryan Posted July 3, 2010 Report Share Posted July 3, 2010 Hey, all - This is probably a "Well, duh!" question, but since I really don't wanna screw up *another* helmet I figured I'd ask anyway. Anywho, I ordered a VT helmet recently and I'm wondering how the paint sticks to the ABS. Was sanding/priming the frown/ears necessary, or did it go on easily without? Thanks, -Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tray[TK] Posted July 3, 2010 Report Share Posted July 3, 2010 I've never had problems with paint sticking to ABS. And I've never sanded or primered.. Of course I have never painted a full helmet before. Just the frown and chin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin[Admin] Posted July 3, 2010 Report Share Posted July 3, 2010 I painted my AP w/o any sanding at all. Should be similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmartigan Posted July 3, 2010 Report Share Posted July 3, 2010 The Humbrols stick to ABS just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
