  1. Carl - Just grabbed this from the Petzl site. Its part of the original manufacturers instructions that you should get when buying a helmet. 'ATTENTION, certain chemical products, especially solvents, can damage your helmet. Protect your helmet from exposure to chemicals.'
  2. Welcome Carl I believe it would be a problem due the chemical make up of paint. Some of these chemicals will possibly weaken your helmets strength by reacting with 'its' plastic
  3. RossJ - surely your doing CS38 & 39 ? - I believe CS37 no longer exists
  4. I'm with Steve - looks like Gandalf
  5. LOL High Scale !!! Made by cul-endor I believe ?
  6. MB - I think this is the way your very efficient venting would be interpreted in the U.K. ' The helmet has been modified, therefore the structural integrity has been compromised ' Therefore it might fail the impact / crush and various other tests that the original helmet was subjected to.
  7. I'm going to try to get to the bottom of this one and will let you know what I find out jonesie - As you say I've heard the question asked many, many times - and I've never understood why they do have VAT I'll let you know
  8. I know its 'a question' thats been around for a long time now - but does anyone know why VAT is added to Chainsaw Trousers ? - I believed that PPE should be all VAT free ? People are hardly going to wear them to the local palais on a saturday night are they ? - maybe they do its a long time since I went to a proper night club !
  9. If you look after your boots they should last a reasonable length of time - i.e. clean & polish - However if you boots fail due to manufacturing faults then they should be replaced. If you build a good relationship up with your local dealer 'trust goes both ways' and I know that I would never have a problem with exchanges (as long as I wasn't taking the P$ss
  10. Agreed - it certainly looks that way
  11. Take em back - youve nothing to loose
  12. Just use a husky - dont have to make mods to achieve 13500rpm
  13. Sorry Mr. Ed - looks like I started everyone off again
  14. Go on Jay - have a go! If I were closer, and had the time - I'd be there regardless of how I might do
  15. Put my name in too please Mr. Ed (Sorry its late in the day) :wave:
  16. Lost my very long hair at 17 - very sad at the time. Now I go for No.2 sides & back only.
