BobMcRobertson 0 Report post Posted October 19, 2009 I have an S9 that is only about 3 months old. The VN padding that makes up the back of the head and top of the head area has come unattached form the shell. What is a good glue to put it back in or should the helmet be tossed? Thanks!

eric42434224 1 Report post Posted October 19, 2009 I had the same thing happen, and I am not so sure that it isnt actually supposed to be that way. On my helmet, the way the pads are configured, it kind of keeps the pads generally in place anyway. I havent had to glue mine in at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I havent had to glue mine in at all.I wouldn't worry my S9 helmet has the same thing, I think it is supposed to be that way also. The one section is lifting a bit, but it should be fine because it is attached in other key places. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TBLfan 25 Report post Posted October 19, 2009 Don't use glue that is thin enough to soak into the foam, it will make the foam hard and/or brittle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ts.krajewski 0 Report post Posted October 19, 2009 I have an S9 and its not big deal. I had to take out ALL the pads when I put on my visor, I am cursed with fat fingers and I dont see how people can hold those tiny screws while trying to put on a visor.

chippa13 1844 Report post Posted October 19, 2009 Liquid nails is what I've used. Just apply some to the padding and helmet shell per the directions and then wear your helmet for a while. Pads will be all set. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
