I while back I wanted to paint a helmet...

Friend told me of a place that does hydro dipping...

Took the helmet to them.

It came out crap. The polystyrene part looked terrible with the dipping .

So the guy tried to remove it with some toxic chemicals.... 

It ate away the polystyrene...

So he took the initiative to rebuild the the damaged polystyrene sections with body filling potty...

When I received the helmet back it weighted like 5kg...👀:ph34r:

Nice Giro helmet m@er toe...🥲

Morel of the story  : be careful who you choose to do the job. It's much more difficult that it looks...
