      not sure what it is, but seems like maybe there's an issue with the either the gear selector or the spring for that? I have never opened the case on this to see what the shift drum looks like, but there could be issues there as well. Unfortunately, probably just need to open the whole thing and look around.

    Hey, just a tidbit of info about the sanding part. You don't have to go down to the shell of the helmet or even remove the paint, you just need to scuff the surface enough so that the primer sticks to the surface well, generally speaking most of the fine imperfections sanding would have left will be smoothed out by applying the several coats of paint that will go on top. Usually I get a very feather light surface sscraping with a 450grit and a quick little polishing with 800 wet, takes about 30 mins to a hour depending on the complexity of the helmet's surfaces to get it done. Then dust it and wipe it of any dust and go do the primer coat. BTW, be careful when sanding to not get too hard on the ridges, you'll round them a lot and lose a bit of the sharp geometric shapes. At the end to avoid most of the orange peel effect after the cclear coats, I usually do a first light 1k clear coat, fully dry, wet sand @800, 2nd light 1K clear, fully dry, assess the surface aspect second wet sand @800 if needed and generally you'll be golden at this point, clean very well and then do a final well tensed 2K clearcoat to seal off the helmet. Anyhow, very good job for a first helmet paint!

    • @bottomupbuilds
      @bottomupbuilds 5 місяців тому

      Correct, since I lowered the car (raised the starting position of the spring plate) mine just set right on the shelf without much effort. If you are raising the car (lowering the starting position of the spring plate) you will need to use something to press it up so it can be pushed over and set on the shelf. If your car is assembled with the body on and engine in, a jack should do the trick, or I have even seen people use a ratchet strap to pull the spring plate up so it can be set into place.
