you are correct sir. the entire helmet is a yellow-y plastic that was since painted over and then coated with a gloss or some tougher enamel. looks like car paint to me! or something similar. it's why I'm going to use it on the old CPro.
model paint might work too but again you'll have to clear coat it somehow is what I'm thinking right now.
On the Brine helmet you can feel a slight lip where one paint overlaps the other. Haven't hear about problems with chipping too much but the helmets have only been out for a month and they are demo helmets. Paint looks and feels pretty solid.

Brine made them two tone. I assume its paint.

Bold move cotton! I'm very curious to see how this turns out – I've been thinkin about dying my old green UO CPro black, but I was worried about the dye taking. What about model paint from a hobby store, probably would chip huh? maybe just more sanding and time.

Also, is the red on the Triumph a decal or dye?

I picked up a gait identity at hudson laxfest for $20 cause I forgot to bring my own helmet (and my house was 45 minutes away). It was harder to work with but i still owned.

Played Oklahoma a few years ago, they went from white and red helmets that looked horrible because cascade wouldnt make maroon to nice shinny metallic maroon ones that looked just the the football team. They said they brought them to a local car painting place and they did them for them. Looked great but they had problems with chipping
