I dont know if you know this but if you sand the factory finish it drops the strength of the helmet. Thats why I asked if it was a factory primer. If you plan on using this for racing some tracks will not let you use it. Also depending on how bad a scratch is they also say that drops the strength too and they will not let you use that helmet.
