Title: Dirty Helmet
Post by: grog on Thursday, 30 May 2019, 07:04 PM
Bought some I Pone interior helmet cleaner. Mine had general build up of use. Just a foam spray but inside helmet cleaned up perfectly, even smells nice. https://www.ipone.fr/en/product/helmetin/

If I don't wash my helmet in the sink with baby shampoo I use Motrex helmet cleaner, works really well and smells nice.

Most helmet manufacturers say helmets are only supposed to last approximately 5 years. I do try to keep mine clean. The majority of newer helmets do allow removal of the internal liners for cleaning etc.  :doh:

What I am noticing is exterior pieces deteriorating,  :whatever: which is normal when you wear it more than normal and it's exposed to our harsh UV conditions.
