is it possible to wrap a crash helmet?
Might be a stupid question but, is it possible to wrap a crash helmet? I’m guessing not as there’s so much vinyl to lose crapping any artwork.

it can be done john, but with solid colours you do loose colour where over stretched. with digital prints, the image is very distorted.

someone I know tried to do this and he advised that it was a complete pain in the arse and youd have to charge an arm and a leg. I suppose it would be doable if it was done in layers.

As Rob and Cheryl said it CAN be done, but won’t look anything like an airbrush job, so you won’t be able to charge enough as well. I tried it once, for a mates helmet, took half a day and still looked crap!

Thanks for the reply guys,
a unanimous NO!

I have just seen the finished article of a helmet being wrapped. Looks wicked and A fair few people were wanting it done but it took him 5 hours to wrap it so not worth doing it IMO. 😀

John have you seen this movie in youtube? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Abl-8v_hn90
These guys are wrapping a helmet, but they do stretch the print motive quite a bit.
