How to Clean a Motorcycle Helmet

San Clemente, CA – Your motorcycle helmet goes through a lot. Bugs, road grime, oils, sweat and changing weather conditions all leave their mark, and regular cleaning is an important part of keeping your helmet looking and feeling fresh.

Start with the exterior. For a gloss-finish helmet, use a cleaner designed to safely remove bugs, oils, dirt and grime without damaging the finish. MOLECULE CLEANER POLISH is designed specifically for helmet exteriors and uses a simple spray-and-wipe application while leaving the surface clean and polished. It can also be used on most visors.

Matte helmets need a different approach. Traditional waxes and polishes can change the appearance of a low-luster finish. MOLECULE MATTE DETAILER is formulated specifically for matte-finish helmets, cleaning away dirt and grime while helping maintain a consistent flat finish.

Next comes the inside of the helmet. Sweat, heat and repeated use can create unwanted odors in padding and liners. HELMET REFRESH is designed to deodorize helmet interiors, including padding, foam and linings. Spray the interior and allow it to completely dry before putting the helmet back on. Avoid applying Helmet Refresh directly to the visor.

Finally, give your visor some attention. A clean visor is about more than appearance. Removing road film, bugs and dirt helps maintain clear visibility every time you ride.

A few minutes of regular helmet care can make a big difference between rides. Clean the exterior, refresh the interior and keep the visor clear so your equipment is ready when you are.
