|  Custom painted welding helmet
I thought Id share some doodling I did in my free time on my welding helmet. I stripped it down, painted it with Gloss White for plastics and a good scrubbing with oven cleaner.  Then I used paint markers and clear coat to seal it all.  |

no, they're WAY to small for my clumsy fingers. I use to customize diecast cars and models when I was younger.

spray kind. I used a Industrial reflective paint on it. Its very strong and leaves a flat finish to reduce the reflection from flash.
