It is a nostalgic helmet. I designed it when I was working at a Japanese helmet company 35 years ago. This air intake on my forehead was designed by me. The world's first air-cooled helmet. It was my youth.
This channel helped inspire me to take on more side work. I work in a collision shop full time, but learning custom work is what really helped keep my wallet flush
Too bad more guys weren’t as smart as you . In tried getting an engine cover painted at a reputable paint shop. They said painting the emblem would be difficult . And would use whatever paint they have . They really didn’t care. Which is sad because that’s domino effected into later business since I will never recommend them nor go there myself .
Dude, love your videos. Once I get my garage squared away, I'm going to start spraying due in no small part to your videos. They are easy to follow and you give a lot of good advice and tips. Well done, sir.
I live in Michigan and I love how you paint cars golf carts you are awesome I've been watching your videos for a couple years now you do a great job you're a perfectionist that's what I like about your videos have a great day.
I’ve been watching u for a good while man and I’m always amazed at u work and I just want to say I hope u and your family are safe in all theses crazy times be safe bro and keep putting out the vids
Dude, gives me the courage to finally paint my bike. Ive prepped the bodywork and its primed. I just chickened out when it comes to laying the paint down. Rattle can with sem color and 2k max clear. Great video
@@SprayWayCustoms so I’m doing my teams football helmets would that be considered raw plastic? And I appreciate your feedback bro you do great amazing work...
You really make it look easy. Thought, you know what, I can do that. Took a cheap £20 helmet and sanded it down. That’s probably we’re the easy bit finished. Everything else was a nightmare. Primer went runny and started dripping. First coat did not adhere well to primer. Ended up putting 4 coats. Didn’t dry for more than three days. Taped it up. Take edges didn’t hold tight and the second colour went into it, no clear lines. Third colour was ok. Finishing enamel didn’t dry after three days. Went to take take off, wasn’t pressing hard. Whole thing is a right mess. If thinking of painting your helmet, forget it. Might as well just throw it in the bin like mine.
Once again amazing job I'm about done with the body work on my 96 Chevy Silverado so I'm almost ready to Candy paint and I was wondering how much primer and candy paint do you think I will need ? and I'm getting that same kind of paint that you be using
Straight heat! Just in time for warm weather. Thank you for the step by step. Also, how can I send you something like and address or PO box? I was wondering if you could use some things to make filming your videos easier. We got some small hand tripods that are "handles" when you are filming but you can set it down and keep filming so you can use both hands in those sanding shots. Your camera should just screw right down on it. If you don't need anything that's cool, just keep making these valuable tutorials
Great job very educational one this I would recommend is a camera man or a stand so you can use both your hands but. Man you did and amazing job I give you an 11 out of 10 great work
@@SprayWayCustoms quick question, I'm doing to helmets right now, just to confirm is 400 the final grit to finish the primer and guide coat? For some reason I thought it had to be 600?
Very nice job on the helmet.i have a question for you I'm about to repaint a set of calipers that are on now powder coated black if I scuff them up to repaint do I have to use a high heat primer or will the old powder coat protect the new paint
I wish I lived closer to you bro! Do you ever get requests for custom airbrushing, I airbrush and it would go nice with your clean ass work! Good job and keep it up!
Man those fiberglass door panels and other fiberglass interior parts you do would be perfect for me to airbrush on I wish we were closer. Thanks for doing the videos man your teaching so much different stuff.
Hey Sprayway you ever paint home appliances? I had a paint guy here in Texas that did a washer and dryer for a customer...air brush and whole 9 yards....then the referrals came 1 after another...he got to doing as many appliances as cars.. every man cave and and she shack in town had custom painted fringe...
So you don’t have to do anymore sanding at all until after the clear coat? The layers of paint don’t need sanding in between? Or if you tape off designs, you don’t need to send everything before final clear coat?
@@SprayWayCustoms right on. Thank you for responding as always. I’m learning pinstripe and lettering and gilding right now. Paint too but I live in an apt so can’t paint much. No room for the equipment and both so I’m using expensive aresol paint right now. Practicing on all my helmets then I’m going to do my bike over and over until it’s where I want it. Then I hope to have somewhere to do bigger projects and have the equipment to to spray the paint and flakes that I want. But honestly, these $20 and up rattle cans look professional if done right. Love your work. I live nearby and I’m surprised as many nice cats and classics around here, not many people are rolling with your caliber of paint work on their cages. I don’t get it. Thanks again
Great paint job 💪🏾 that helmet is not safe though the dent in the shell mean the EPS is likely compromised it wont dissipate energy anymore so whoever is wearing that God forbid they took an impact they would suffer a worse head injury...
SprayWay or NoWay and that’s Period!!! My dude threw that hand up in that reflection like, Oops I did it again!!! No one touching the homie with that spray gun!!! Stay safe Bro!!!
As always u killed it Spray! Salute!!! . . . 77 Regal dashboard is out and waiting on u bro. You told me to send it to u. Where am i sending it? How can I get in contact with u outside of the public chat? Thx in advance i preciate it!!!

It's the background music and the work. I will need that kind of work soon. I wish you were in cali. But I see you keep up the clever work!
Thanks Craig
Nice work,defo a tinted visor would look cool
I agree...thanks
@SpraywayCustoms when painting helmets do you need the adhesive promoter or will it be ok without?
Lawrence Wesson no you don't need it unless you spraying over raw plastic
@@SprayWayCustoms so I’m doing my teams football helmets would that be considered raw plastic? And I appreciate your feedback bro you do great amazing work...
Lawrence Wesson does it have a clear or anything on them?
@@SprayWayCustoms yes most the helmets have other paints on them and the new ones have a clear coat I believe...
Lawrence Wesson if they have some type of material already on it you don't need an adhesion promoter because the paint will bond to it.
Nice work. And did it one handed!
Thanks
Awesome paint job
Thanks Brandon
That looks so good. Great job
Thanks James
Well done 👌👍

Hardly 🤣 why would you repair a lid with damage, this is so wrong, this helmet needs to be in the bin.
Not his work but what he started with

400 will be fine to spray base coat over. I always use 400

Just scuff and paint will be fine. I always use regular automotive paint and clear and never had a problem
@@SprayWayCustoms ok thanks

Did you left the paint dry before clear coat or did you just put clear coat after you finished painting?
So you don’t have to do anymore sanding at all until after the clear coat? The layers of paint don’t need sanding in between? Or if you tape off designs, you don’t need to send everything before final clear coat?
You don’t have to sand if you don’t let it sit too long
