Hello - I want to stick an image on my helmet - and wanted to know what would be the best adhesive to use. I am aware that ‘things’ get stuck on with 3m sticky pads, so wondered about using 3M spray mount or 3M double sided sticky tape. If anyone has any suggestions (relevant and sensible!!!) that would be good. And if you insist I will tell you what the images are!
Thanks

Sticky wicket. That particular helmet is Polycarbonate not fibreglass or Kevlar, and PC is such a chemically pathetic polymer when it comes to chemical degradation, that the safest answer would be - none.
Seriously.

You don't want anything solvent based. I used double sided number plate foam tape. It sticks well and if there's ever an accident the foam will break.
