Pinlock removal

[Richard_imp]

What's the technique for removing a Pinlock insert without ruining it?

1. Remove the shield from the helmet.
2. Straighten the shield to take some of the bend out of the pinlock.
3. Gently (using a fingernail) lift the edge of the pinlock along the centre of one of the long edges.
4. Pull the pinlock away, by making it curve in the opposite direction to the shield whilst also trying to avoid touching the inner surface of the pinlock.


That’s what I have done, when transferring a pinlock between two shields.
