if anyone has interest...

i manage to remade a german custom paint for the helmet. i'm talking about non-shining(mat) paint that was called textured-paint.

some explanation here:

the hole process cosists in combining paint(feldgrau---or what is desired) with some substance that makes the texture. it takes about 2-3 days to be completly dryied.

if anyone has interest in retoring a helmet please pm.

gruss!
