Modern Vespa

Just bought this kit so i can clean my helmets. Hedon (British company) makes this and yes that's real leather on the front. Has 3 bottles. Leather cleaner, helmet cleaner and odor eliminator. Comes with a thick plush microfiber also. Poor helmets need some TLC. I also ordered some copper cleaner for the copper bits on my Hedon helmet. I love the box Might help if i added the pic.

For the hard areas of the helmet, a bit of car wax will help you on future cleanings

For the face shields, I use either Raincoat or Cee Baileys Rain Repellant.

Hmmmmm... yesterday I used BrakeKleen!

Remove liner throw in washer, hang to dry

Maybe no Walmarts in HI?


They sell Lexol- as good a leather cleaner & preservative as any sold anywhere. Buy the orange and brown spray btls. and your set up for leather!
Carwax as already said for hard stuff. Face shield I like mild soap and hot water with a soft cloth like micro fiber.
Inside afte I sweat in it a bit-I use the stuff my wife sprays on clothes-name escapes me...or wash in Woolite Dark version on gentle cycle.
Copper-use Brasso-10 plus Army years taught me that one. Or use vinegar and salt which shines copper fast and easy. We did that when i was a kid playing with pennies.

I've found a really good odor eliminator and live-cootie killer for helmets to be the sprays intended for use with body armor, and available at any cop-shop.

As for leather, this is Oklahoma, so we just go into the nearest feed-n-seed and grab a half-gallon of whatever they are carrying for saddles. It works pretty good on all the leather bits found on a helmet. And as an added plus, the helmet will smell like Cowboy Country.

I just use my body wash when I'm in the shower ...... odd thread

B not odd for living in Hawaii. Haven't worn my Ruby helmet this winter and when i took it out to clean it , it had some mold growing on the leather. Been rainy and damp here for months.

thats not a cheap kit it should be good at that price

True. Haven't a clue what the exchange rate is these days but i have some expensive helmets. Behooves me to make sure i don't ruin them (inside leather) with cleaning stuff. This should last me a long time.

Judy, you know the rules: you can't mention the Ruby without tossing up the photos. Well, it should be a rule.......

I know. Hopefully it'll stop rain here so i can wear it. Not just that i don't like getting it wet but it doesn't have a face shield so it's not good for riding in the rain. Even with the goggles that i have for it. Just for you in case you forgot what it looks like.

you have some very nice helmets judy,
