where to get replacement padding?

Recommended Posts

Where can I get the kind of replacement padding in the 8k or the intake?

Do you think RBK would sell/send me some?

My sweat has dissolved all the glue and the pads are starting to slide. Kinda gross, but do people wash out their helmets every game?

I doubt they would send you some. Not only does it decertify your helmet but it would be putting them at risk for a lawsuit if you got hurt after they sent you replacement padding for you to put inside the helmet.

Best bet is to glue it back in with some Gorilla Glue or something.

Washing your helmet out every game is overkill though, every once in a while is enough, especially if you air out your stuff.

I wonder if the mission helmets are the same?

You would think they would pick a glue that could withstand sweat every once in a while.

How long have you had the helmet? RBK wont send you padding but they might RA the helmet for you. I wanted to do the same with some shin pad liners and they told me to just send the pads back and they would replace the entire thing.

I'm sure some compromises have to be made for the choice of adhesive. Some of the stronger stuff may react with the EPP; I know crazy glue makes jenpro (goalie pads) smoke.

I have had it over 1 year now, so I doubt im covered by any warranty or anything.

I did try some double sided tape....but its having a hard time adhering to the foam.

Maybe they come off so I have to buy another 8k.....=)

what size is it, what condition is the shell and what color? I am somewhat interested in buying an 8k shell to throw some VN into it.
