meekerscott Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 (edited) My Anovos order comes with just the helmet (completed) and the kit, with no inner linings or padding. What do I need to get for the inside of the armor, and what would best be used for adhesive? I have E6000 for the ABS, but maybe Gorilla glue or industrial-strength two-sided tape for any type of padding or lining inside? Edited August 29, 2015 by meekerscott Quote
81artmonk Posted August 30, 2015 Report Posted August 30, 2015 I personally use Industrial strength velcro. If you put it on and let it cure before you attach anything it's pretty strong and the holding power is pretty good too. The plus is if for any reason you need to swap out or change or repair it's easy to remove or get out without leaving anything behind. The two sided tape works well for certain applications. It's hard to remove and sometimes gets messy. Quote
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted August 30, 2015 Report Posted August 30, 2015 I went to Jo Anne fabrics an purchased some 1 inch thick "Chair cushion padding", Scott, and cut it to fit in the places I needed it, including the inside of my bucket. Like the other Scott said, I used Industrial strength Velcro. I would suggest this over any sort of glue, as over time any sort of padding can absorb sweat, and start to smell pretty bad. That way you can either replace it or remove it for cleaning. Quote
Snaps[TK] Posted August 30, 2015 Report Posted August 30, 2015 I'd recommend heavy duty velcro as well.... Quote
Sonnenschein Posted August 30, 2015 Report Posted August 30, 2015 I just use some clover shaped foam and double sided tapw. I actually works pretty well Quote
meekerscott Posted September 1, 2015 Author Report Posted September 1, 2015 Thank you very much everyone. I will get the padding at JoAnn Fabrics and some good velcro as advised. You rock. Quote
Chills[TK] Posted September 2, 2015 Report Posted September 2, 2015 Yep, velcro. I got some at Lowe's and used it to hold the padding from a crashed Arai motorcycle helmet in place. Fits like a dream. Quote
n10sracer Posted January 27, 2016 Report Posted January 27, 2016 Hello everyone, I just received my Anovos kit and I was wondering the same thing. It seems to move around a bit. Does anyone have a picture of the inside of their bucket so I have an idea how to attach the foam blocks for better fit? Thank you! Quote
