When painting Clone helmets I like to use the primer as the grey on the helmet.

So anything that is grey, I tape off with painting tape before painting the helmet white.

The only grey pieces I repaint later are the mouth and vent holes.

Once taped off spray the helmet white. Go slowly while painting. Spray a light coat and

let dry. Come back later and add another coat. Repeat step’s until you are happy with it white finish.

Check undercut areas closely for any parts that are not fully covered. Just be careful not to apply too

much paint. You dont want it to puddle up and seap under the taped off grey areas.

The can says 15 minute dry time but I like to wait a full day before moving onto the adding

the other colors to the helmet
