Please take care of your Leatt Helmet investment. Keep it clean and you will look great but do it right!
CLEANING THE SHELL
First, rinse with water to remove any larger pieces of dirt. Then using only mild soap, warm water, and a microfiber cloth, remove the remaining dirt and bugs, do not use an aggressive sponge.
Think of your helmet as a nice car, to keep in great condition, clean it gently. If your helmet has a gloss finish you can use car wax to make it shine, for satin or matte finish please do NOT polish or use any wax.
Stay away from chemicals! Polymers and paint do not work well with chemicals like degreasers, alcohol, solvents. Use only mild soap!

All Leatt helmets have a removable comfort liner. Please clean the comfort liner regularly.
