How To Make A Helmet From Pep To Finish

[Jason0]

Hey Ben, fantastic tutorials to say the least, just wanted to say thanks for helping the noobs and vets alike, I myself learned most of what I know from you. The vids are helpful, light-hearted, funny, and a blast to watch. I've actually watched them all a few times now, lol. I'm not sure if you remember me, I had taken a break from the 405th, but when I was here I worked in clay/foam mostly, but as someone who's actually finally going for a pep suit, I'm curious as to when you would sand at different grits, I haven't seen it covered in your vids, and I haven't ever went past about 180. I do understand that 2000+ or so, would be for an insanely glossy look, but not sure if 320 or so is desired/the norm. I'm also looking for "When" you would progress up in grits, after the bondo is sanded flat/smooth? Thanks for the reply in advance, and keep up the vids when you're not too busy at the store.

this is the best tut i've found on the 405th as of yet to do with resin and rondo and bondo. it answered all of my questions and gave me great tips on anything else i was thinking of doing. this should definitely be stickied in the noob forum. Now I can actually finish my MK VI.
