    I bought this to display my visor since it seems to have a fabric coating on it. Will this still leak acids on the visors leather from the styrofoam?

    Looks fine even a foam head does not damage hats should be okay

    Foam heads WILL damage the leather in time.

    I would not use it.

    Even with the fabric covering it? Thats the reason I bought it. What would you reccomend? Thanks for the help Ade!

    All the best,

    Skipper Greenwade's stands are probably the best on the market. They are a little pricey but they are unmatched in my opinion.
    I buy the stretchers only and make my own stands.

    I was going to ask about glass but I can't fit stands in my display case anyway, shelves aren't tall enough.

    If you buy Skipper Greenwade's stretchers you can make the stand and make it to the height you want to fit in your case such as Ralph suggests.

    Ade's idea is the best except there not cheap through ebay with the postage......regards Dave.

    Ok thanks for the gel guys, I think the stretchers are kind of out of budget for the time being, I guess I'll just scour 2nd hand stores for a glass head. Thanks for the help!
