Interior Cleaning
Although we recommend changing a helmet every 3 to 5 years, the accumulation of sweat,
humidity and dirt can deteriorate the fabric and stitching and this may cause odor. To wash HJC
removable pads, HJC recommends regular machine washing and air drying.
For non-removable interiors, HJC recommends using bacteria and mildew eliminating products
such as "Helmet Fresh."
Vent Cleaning
Dirt and debris can find its way into venting of your HJC helmet. Compressed air cans used for
cleaning computer keyboards may be used to blow the debris from the ventilation system.
It is recommended that you remove any removable pads before doing this process.
Shield Cleaning
The helmet shield is made of polycarbonate materials with a polyurethane abrasion resistance
coating. It should be cleaned using a weak solution of mild soap and warm water. Never use
hot water, salt water, benzene, thinner, gasoline or any other harsh agents. Treat carefully when
cleaning to preserve the abrasion resistant coating. When deep scratches are visible, it is highly
recommended that the helmet shield be replaced. Tinted shield are for "Day time use only" and
are not suitable for use at night or in conditions of poor visibility.
