Be sure and wear a good quality respirator! Don't think that just because it comes from a rattle can, it's not nasty stuff!

Well I got the helmet cleared, yes I did wear a respirator, I had a few runs. So I wet sanded and cleared again, and again I got runs. So I had to do a lot more wet sanding and then polished it after. I'll have to get some pics out in the sun were it really shines, but this is what I got so far.

Looks great! I'm not that creative... I just repainted my winter lid, full face HJC gloss black helmet to plain ol flat satin black to match my bike.
