budspencer1971 Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 Let's take a look at the tip well washers we made: They've turned out very nice and now provide good backing for the mic tips. remember this helmet is paper thin in the tip well area. If yours is thin it is a good idea to reinforce if you plan to use the helmet regularly. Another method of reinforcing I haven't tried personally but many friends have said is awesome: Saturate a piece of cotton T-shirt material in quality super glue (NOT THE DOLLAR STORE STUFF!!!) Apply over the tip wells INSIDE the helmet and allow to set up. My buddy Amish Trooper says it reminds him of fiberglassing. If anyone has pics we will add em here.... Lol if you look at this closely you can see E.T weird ahahahahahah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I understand now why you didn't post photos of the helmet with the white latex blobs all over it! Ewwwww, is all I'll say. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
