Care and Cleaning
Helmets are energy absorbing devices intended to deform, fracture, crush, and collapse as they absorb as
much of the energy generated by an impact as they possibly can. They are durable, but should be treated as
though they are fragile so that you will have all of the available energy absorbing materials if you should ever
need them. Your helmet will give you years of good service if properly cared for.
Follow these simple rules:
• Never decorate your helmet with paint, decals, stickers, or tape.
• Use only mild soap and water to clean the outside of your helmet.
• Chemicals used in many items can be harmful to the outer shell of your helmet.
• Frequently, this damage is not visible, and can result in premature fracturing of
the shell when impacted.
• Use only mild soap and water to clean the interior of your helmet.
• Never allow your helmet to come in contact with gasoline or other petroleum
products, as this will cause serious damage to the energy absorbing inner liner and/or
the outer shell of the helmet.
Storage
Our helmets require little special care. However, it is a good idea to protect your helmet from damage if it is to be
stored for a long period of time. Household pets will chew on an unattended helmet if given the chance. Helmets
should be stored in a cool, dry place. Exposure to temperatures in excess of 150 degrees F can cause damage,
resulting in a loss of protection. The interior of cars on sunny days can exceed 150 degrees.
Painting
Our helmets should not be painted by anyone other than the manufacturer. Many helmet components can be
seriously damaged by chemicals and/or solvents contained in most paint or by careless handling during the
repainting process.
