this chanel is an absolute dream come true for me! I've always wanted to diy a helmet for my self, but I was always scared and worried it won't be what I imagined, but the technique and steps you've given in just 2 videos?! invaluable
You probably dont give a shit but if you guys are bored like me atm you can stream pretty much all of the latest movies on InstaFlixxer. I've been watching with my brother for the last few days =)
I wanted to ask if there is any place or a way to take a helmet that i design and painted and make mass production so that u can save time instead to paint each and every helmet all over again???
That's the nature of what we do as "custom" helmet painters. The helmets are one-offs painted exclusively for each customers. For mass production, check out what motorcycle helmet manufacturers do.
Depends what paint I spray. If I know the color is going to cover them, I don't erase them. If not, I erase everything just before spraying the paint. Cheers.
Hey Patrice !!! Ihave 2 questions for you : for how long and at what temperature should i put my helmet in the oven for the paint to cure? Thank you in advance. Chears!
Always refer to the Technical Data Sheet from the paint manufacturer. In my case, my clearcoat should dry 30 minutes at 60 degree Celsius. Every product is different.
Lol. I’m pretty sure I stole my measuring tape from my mom too. Also, the “must have” tool from the beginning is called a Ring Stand. They are used in chemistry primarily.
Really like your videos. I also paint helmets and I was very surprised that someone so openly shared the specifics of this job. Looking forward to the next video! :)
Superb work as always Patrice! Nice videos, I mostly end up with too short of time when I have record my process of helmetpaint, I have a bunch of them and maybee someday I have the time to edit them also =). Great work!
So detailed and so many little tricks in here, really kind of you to take the time to pull this together, cheers! Good effort on the filming/edit too 👍🏻
Did you ever get to build the lining tool? I am asking around too but I cant find the parts that go on the rod to hold the pencil... So far I have a metal rod with a skateboard-wheel base (the rod is in between the bearings in order for it to be able to spin) but I cant find a sturdy way to get the pencil to be on there and to be leveled... tape is just not working!
Another interesting video Patrice. As a designer hoping to get into painting, is there a reason why you recommend not painting chinstrap rivets? Or is it just personal preference? I look forward to the next video.
As long as I remember, I always tried to make my helmet paints look like it's from the factory. Therefore the rivet should not be painted. There is ABSOLUTELY no problem with painting them but, I think it looks way better when they are bare metal.
@@helmetgurucanada Thanks for the reply Patrice. Something I haven't got my head around yet, is orders of paint and trying to keep the layers to a minimum. Coloured stroke lines seem a paint? Keep up the great videos!

A video on the proper way to remove the interiors would be super helpful!!

@Devin Kairo Yup, have been using InstaFlixxer for years myself :D
Please do a video on your airbrushing details. Awesome channel subbed
Do you clean the helmet before you paint to get rid of fingerprints and grease, like at 12:00, if yes, how do you maintain the masking?
Very good video, would you have any adive for putting on large graphics?
Where was the airbrushing which you said would be in this video?
these are videos just in masking... they are not tutorials on how to paint helmets
where can i get The tools to be traced ?? plz
Nice but how do these companies make a carbon fibre helmet?
Ask them

Where is your shop located I need a helmet made up.
I am in Canada.
Wondering how/when you erase your traced lines?! Ty!
Depends what paint I spray. If I know the color is going to cover them, I don't erase them. If not, I erase everything just before spraying the paint. Cheers.
Thank you for the info. I appreciate.
At last, a sensible easy to listen video / channel.... thank you... keep up the good work 👌

@@helmetgurucanada thank you so much

I absolutely love these videos, some great little tips that will help me a lot. Thank you Patrice.
I can really identify with this guy. VERY detail oriented and clever. Great stuff, I can't wait to design a helmet with him

Hi and thanks for sharing. I haven't painted in a long time but have been thinking of getting back into it. Love watching your videos.
You could get a part in Holywood shortly, great vid buddy.

By far the best video on this subject I've seen so far. Well done mate!
wow what a wonderful and also funny tutorial - thx for it it. well done
Why do you only mask some of the top vent holes?
patrice, you're the man! funny intro
Your a Pro. Great Talent.
What clear coat product do you use?
How did you build that pencil lining tool? I'm trying to build one myself. Trying to find the parts. Any help would be appreciated. Great work.
I made it from scrap parts I had and the help of a machinist friend. Sorry I can't be of any more help.
