Eeew .... I've Got A Sticky Helmet.


Recommended Posts

I was annoyed when the soles fell off my Triumph Gore-Tex boots because they couldn't take tropical conditions - but now my Caberg Breeze helmet has got a permanent sticky finish. The matt silver finish and the plastic side pods feel sticky to touch and using polish or plastic pan scrubbers makes no difference.

I guess it's the heat again? Not sure if it's still safe to use if the plastic is degrading?

Should we be keeping our expensive lids in the fridge??

First step in cleaning rub it all over with medical alcohol. If that doesn't remove the stick stuff rub it all over with turps. LEAVE OUTSIDE EITHER WAY AS ITS SMELLY! If that doesn't work spray with WD40 or similar and rub. Still there? Use the stuff they clean fuel injectors with.....at your own risk! It can eat into some types of plastic.
