What would you want painted on yours?
I've got a bright red Mo-hawk on my full facerm that's pimp enough for me, unfortuantly the cat ears on my xc lid got a bit manky after a winters use :(

Well I'm looking for new helmet, but I want an orange one. Orange is quite hard to find though at the mo, tis all boring grey and silver.

calm down!! calm down!! i was not suggesting that the oh so talented crafts peoples at MFX would use anything else but the right substances for daubing onto their helmets. i was just giving, so i thought, fair warning to those excited youths who cannot wait to get their mitts on daddies fluorescent aero-paints!!!!!!! so sorry for getting your dander up * jp

Not at all my good man, there are a lot of idiots that use solvents out there, where they shoudn't, i just like to distance myself from this practice, i love water, i drink it all the time....i love to use it in my paint.......yummy! theres no other way as far as i'm concerned,it costs us more and is a bitch to work with, but no shortcuts at MFX mate, thanks for your reply though mate, its good to provoke a reaction! LOL

Peace. AL
LOL @ "keep up Kato"

Deciding what to have sprayed on the lid is soooo difficult- it took me ages to decide what colour to have my bike frame sprayed when it went in for a respray a few years ago and that was just a single plain colour! When you have the choice of artwork etc it just becomes far to complicated!!

it took me 3 months to decide what colour to get my frame painted and then i couldnt get the colour i wanted so i went for my second choice which never lived up to its potential

'This way up'

Mr Doyle, is it the one and the same...?

Long time no see. Artwork looks fantastic, hope all is going well with the venture.
