so can i just put the resin on the outside or do i have to get some sheets of fiberglass? And what do i put in the holo spaces like the shade thing above the visor, back of the helmet, and the mouth piece?
I used a different way of doing it. Typing up the Tut as I progress. Hopefully will have it done soon.
I just resined the outside, about 4 layers. Then on the inside I just resined the parts that were weak when i tested it by pushing on different spots. I used Fiberglass cloth and cut it to the sizes i needed.
You can find all of that stuff in the Auto Section at Wal-mart. Going to run you about 15 bucks.
I didn't put anything in the hollow spaces because I plan on running wires and putting foam into the helmet for comfort.
With the Fiberglass cloth, get some aluminum foil. Put one coat of resin on the part you want to fix, then on the foil, cover your cloth with resin. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE GLOVES ON. Then just put the resin damp cloth where you need it. You can use this technique on the outside or inside of the helmet. Just make sure you read the instructions on all of the products and do it OUTSIDE.. you are going to need all the air you can get.
