dmhtfld Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 With all the different helmet finishes that HGI is able to bring us, I figured I would try to throw a chart together to help people differentiate the different paint jobs used. Now this is a really rough chart that I plan on updating once I get some help from you guys. Most of the finishes are probably named wrong but I tried to categorize them the best I could. Now what I need from you guys is help with getting these names right and letting me know if there are certain styles that I had left out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaydre1019 Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I think the first one is just chrome but in black.I think the Oregon and mich state would be eggshell, not positive though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LETSGOBLUEBEATMSU Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I don't think Michigans matte helmet was from HGI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCRGraphix Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Nice post! I'm actually a big fan of the chrome and matte. It's amazing what they've been able to do the past few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruColor Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Ironically, Pantone discontinued their Matte color books a couple of years ago...you can only get solid/spot colors on Coated and Uncoated paper now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdu Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 TCU's new standard helmet is satin and they have a hydrochrome one as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandMooreArt Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 "Shiny matte" is a satin finish. Also include the seahawks. Texas A/M also have a satin finish but HGI developed that one to actually be between a standard matte and satin. The Vikings is the same way but i think they might have a metallic flake in theirs. Still unsure about thatThe metallic matte looks like a satin finish over a metallic paint. Which is what i think the Vikings have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
