Painting near helmets: yes or not?

[Theodor]

Hi,

I want to repaint the door of a room that contains helmets. Can the thinner fumes do something to the helmets? I will open the windows, there wil be ventilation, but yet that smell, which will be present for a couple of days, can it impact the helmets in some way?

Theodore-just don't try selling any for a couple of days

I don't know howmany helmets you've ,but I would cover them a bit or put them away..

On the other hand the thinner fumes will detect if there're some fake decals in your collection !

They just roll up and drop down ,like a Autumn leaf.............

Theo, how lazy can you get?? MOVE THOSE THINGS!!!! HAHA!!

Although, if you want to kill two birds with one stone, you can make a nice camo at the same time...

[Theodor]

Oh yeah, 50 winter camos!!! I'll just cover them well, though as said will paint only a door and don't plan to make a paintparty out of it

Hey, if some dealers don't think it looks sketchy to have 50 "original" winter camos (all identical), why should you care... You could make a fortune.. Think about it..

Warning : very forward post...

Hey Théo, is it the door of your bedroom, where you so wildly **** and smoke ******** right after ?
Well, IMO...


...TOO LATE TO WORRY !

Really, these things have been around for many years...use them, enjoy them and don't fret the small stuff!

Now I know why I have seen so many direct veteran pickup helmets with speckles of paint on them. They never asked Theodor's question!!!

[Theodor]

****** or ******* in the helmet/militaria temple?? Never, you heretic!!

[britpc]

Why don't you just take the door off and paint it out side

Dunno about the helmets, but regarding my cat, she seems a bit affected by what I smoke...
