Electrical Tape or Masking Tape

Step 2: Paint Specifiation.

now the Rust-Oleums need to be exactly:
80% paint and 20% water
that EXACT Measurement.

Trololololololol, you don't have to.

Step 3: Covering the Helmet

Start by printing your Reference Pictures and taking a look at them. There's a Colour key on the ESB colourscheme picture.
over your Vader Helmet where there is Grey on the Costume minus the eyes. Eventhough they're Black, Cover them as you'll need to see out of them (CAPTAIN OBVIOUS STRIKES AGAIN)

Step 4: Painting the Helmet (Face)

I started with a medium sized Paintbrush and heavily used the Gloss Black for the perfect shine, that and the lighting on the Helmet would create a light ray as potent as Magnesium.
