hahah, me too.
I can hear that clown just laughing... I used to kick ass in that game.
Anyhow, what's the deal with the windshield? Do they just put a perferated sticky over it and spray on top of it? Then one you get a collection of bugs on it, wouldn't using alcohols or harsh degreasers detroy the paint on it?

the screen is a sticker with a million holes in it...he may have painted directly on the sticker but they usually print them. . . and theres no washing your visor with one of those on it.
trs custom visors makes those too. just doesnt do the paint to go with.

it's vinyl you can use. you still sorta have to prep it for paint, and heat shrink it to fit the visor. but i've done some skullies and a jason mask helmet that came out sick so that perf vinyl helps a lot when putting something together it gives you more room to fill a design.
bitch is in the rain though. the rain fills in the little holes, and you go blind. night vision is so so...

is he going to put some clear on it or something? it looks kind of dull and rough around the edges.
still a kickass idea though.

hey thanks for all the props!!!this is REK from www.rekairbrush.com and you guys rock!!!!
I got a gift for art but in no way can I pop a wheelie :bowdown
anyways i see thier some questions here so i will try to answer them al thouth most of you probaly already figured it out.
i basically use a blank vinyl that goes right on to the shield at the time i paint it i do not remove teh backing so no paint goes on the visor.I prep it with something called bulldog which is a paint adhesion promoter which allow you to paitn on many surfaces.it basacly gripps on to the suface like crazy glue an the paint adheres to it jsut like anyother suface.
the paint i use for all my helmet work and motorcycle is ppg or house of colors so the paint will last you ,will not fade or come of with alchohol.I clear coat it very lightly because if you make it to thick then it will crack and also fill the wholes with clear and not allow for better visability.
so yes you can see right throuht it but like you guys mentioned their is some cons to it as well .but then their would be no other way of doing this exept what i have seen on other helmets that they paint the visor and leave only the eyes with no paint ( i think that crazy!!!!)unless you are going to only ride on the strip at very low speed i find this method very dangerous.
but again thank fo rall the praizes here on my work!!!!!!
an if you have any questions or need anything airbrushed including you bikes let me know.
