hey all just want to share my experience with a rubies helmet I got real cheap on ebay.
I did a rubies first because i didn't want to get a expensive kit and mess it up. So I decided to practice on the rubies.
I used plumbers pvc glue to attatch the two pieces...then used plumbers cement to back up the seam on the inner seam. then used two screws to secure the sides..
did a lot of sanding and then painting....
on the exterior i used bondo glazing and spot puddy....it worked well, but you can still see the seam a little on the edges of the dome and a couple places where i mest up a bit...
but i think you can see it's much improved from the standard two piece rubies..
