So I've been using a Scorpion EXO 700 that I bought NIB for $100. Fits well, comfortable, no issues but I would really like to remove the kid-racer graphics and be left with a solid color. Anyone have any experience removing the decals? Are they under clearcoat? Do I have to live with 'em until I buy a new helmet, which could be a while? Thanks
You would have to look at it good, but surface mount graphics remove pretty easy. Get the whole area good and hot with a hair dryer, pick an edge to lift, keep the heat on it and pull slowly. I "de sticker" everything I have. Good Luck
What he said. Feel it with a fingernail. If you feel an edge, it can be removed. But most good helmets have the decals/graphics under a clear coat and can't be removed.
Many times the decals are painted over by the clearcoat. if thats the case leave it alone.
If its not the case, heat gun followed by fingernail and they'll come right off. Any residue i've found a light swipe with goo-gone gets it off without damaging paint. Be sure all the goo-gone is off with a damp rag.
