NOTES ON REPAINTING
If painting your helmet, make sure to protect the
entire inside of the helmet from the paint spray by
masking all openings with paper and tape as paint
can adversely effect the EPS (a.k.a. Styrofoam) shock
absorbing liner and plastic components. Use only air-
drying paint, not paints that require heat curing. Do not
remove any permanent Arai helmet components, such
as the EPS liner, chinstraps, mounting rivets/bolts or
non-removable interior comfort linings, to paint an Arai
helmet or for any other reason.
CAUTION
As is the nature of a good helmet, your helmet is
so constructed that the energy of a severe impact
is absorbed through partial destruction of the shell
and/or liner. Such damage may not be visible to the
naked eye. If the helmet suffers such an impact and
any doubt exists as to its further ability to protect,
