Helmet Wax??

Hi there i just purchased a nice helmet i was wondering if anybody knows a good wax or something along the line of a protectant or something like that?? The helmet was very exspensive (atleast for me $600) so im going to try to take care of it! at least for a little while!! LOL Thanks in advance..Mark

 

PLEXUS :thumbsup:

I always use PLEXUS spray on my Helmet and Visors, PLEXUS is fantastic stuff have had no problems using only it on my Iridium Visors since my first 5 years ago, great for your bikes screen and car headlights too. Use PLEXUS it works. :biggrin:

+1 to Plexus

 

Waxing your helmet...I'm just gonna leave this one alone!!!

 

if you want a sealant try out

Optimum Opti-Seal

 

It sure is, use it on the VFRs painted surfaces and my car but just use normal Meguires on the missuses car.

 

if you use plexus (or any spray with a solvent) - dont leave it linger too long (put it on and take it off), and if you have an Iridium or Cara coated visor, avoid overspray onto the coating, they dont mix well.

 

Meguiars +1

 

Is this akin to polishing one's knob?

 

Very similiar to "buffing the brass" so to speak...

 

Actually I usually debug first with warm water on a soft paper towl just placed ( no rubbing ) on the bugs then pad dry with clean tissues before using the Plexus as a final coating allowing the foam to set about 15 secs before cleaning off with a clean Micro fibre cloth.

Re the Iridium, only clean the outside of my Shoei Iridium visor, the actual coating I believe is on the inside so only use warm very light dish liquid water, then final rinse with clean water on it and have never had iridium film issues on them, ( 2 in 8 yrs ).

 

After "squeezing your lizard" Plexus is great. Also the Honda Spray wax is good. Most Honda dealers in BC carry both products.

 

I was gonna say I thought this was a family show!

 

It is! How about "Harpoon Oil?" Does that work?

 

I use Meguiar's NXT Tech Wax 2.0 on my lid and use the NXT speed detailer for quick clean-up.

I use NOVUS #1 Plastic Clean and Shine on my face shields.

 

Slick 50. (Somebody had to say it.)

 

Too Tempting

Me too, but this now has me wondering if I should put aerodynamic spoilers on my boots...

 

"Protect All" also works well on almost all surfaces, painted or bare metal. If you are going on a trip, you can saturate a paper towel with it and store it in a ziploc baggie for the occasional gas station cleaning.
