Hi all again.I have a full face helmet.But there is no tinted sheild made
for it.Is there any universal sheilds made for helmets? Or if the PEAL N
STICK shaded plastic film would work? Ive tried the shaded plastic on my
windsheilds of my cars before and got alot of air bubbles in it. It looked
like crap when I was done.Any suggestions appreciated..Thanks

A company called "Fog City" used to make dark plastic strips that you
stuck to your clear screen. They worked well. Also kept you from
having to carry two shields. Beats me if they are still in business
or still make the product.
Funny thing, dark shields are not legal in many parts of Europe (day
OR night). Anybody know why?

Because some well meaning but misguided bureaucrat is trying
to protect our European friends from themselves? Not unlike
their US counterparts that think they should protect us by not
allowing us to split lanes (even though their last major study, the
Hurt report said it's actually safer), making it almost impossible
to bring in a non-US model motorcycle, etc....

Did you put it on your self? Was it easy and did it have air bubbles in it
when you were done.

Just clean the shield with water and dry before application and it sticks
perfectly.
I once made the mistake of removing one and reapplying without cleaning the
shield and lost the strip. Now I use two small pieces of scotch tape for
back-up.
The difference the Sundowner makes is significant--about 11" X 1.5".
