Below are some of the most comon question I hear about having a helmet painted and the answers to those questions.

 

FAQ- Average cost for painting a helmet?

Answer- That really depends on the design and and helmet type. I will do my best to work within the budget you have . E-mail me or call me so we can discussed it.

 

FAQ - Can you paint my helmet even thou I do not live close to your shop?

Answer - I custom paint helmets for people from all over the world and have a very good system in place so you'll know exactly what the helmet will look like when you get it back. Every step of the process I'll be in contact with you to get your approval before any painting takes place. For over ten years we've used UPS to ship helmets and have ever had a problem.

 

FAQ - Do you sell helmets?

Answer - No I don't sorry, you purchase a helmet on line and have it drop shipped me. SafeRacer.com is a great place to buy race helmets.

 

FAQ - What color helmet works best and should the helmet be solid color or can it have factory graphics on it.

Answer - Any solid color helmet is fine really as generally we will be changing the base color anyway. I can paint a helmet that already has graphics but it adds to the cost of having the helmet painted, it's best to buy a plain solid color helmet. It's best to purchase a helmet with as few vents as possible as many times vents become a problem with design layout and add to the cost . It requires more time and work on my part to deal with a lot of vents making it more expensive for you.

 

FAQ - I had another custom painter do my helmet but I really don't like what was done can you fix it for me?

Answer - No sorry I only work on new or in like new condition helmets.

 

FAQ - My helmet has a scratch, dent, nick in it can you repair it for me?

Answer - If that helmet is in that condition for your own safety you should purchase a new helmet, I do not repair badly damaged helmets. Smaill scratches, dings I can and will fix for you before painting.

 

FAQ - How do we come up with the final design for my helmet? Will you copy another custom painter's helmet design I like?

Answer- If you are thinking about having your helmet custom painted I would think in part it is so you're helmet design will be unique so why settle for coping someone else's helmet design. If you send me four or five examples of helmets you like or photo refences I can generally come up with a unique design you can call all your own. We can work together via e-mails to come up with a final design you will be happy with.

 

FAQ - How long does it usually take to have a helmet custom painted?

Answer - After I have received the helmet and the final design is worked out about a week in most cases.

 

FAQ - Will you clear coat the helmet?

Answer - Yes I use only the best custom paints and clear coats on the market and that would be House of Kolor. The art work, graphics will be buried within the clear so when you touch the helmet you will not feel the edge's; your helmet will be returned to you with a glass like shiny finish.
