But just a tip… I put about 50/50 alcohol and water in a spray bottle that had previously held a frebreze type product, and spray my helmet with that. Kills the bad smell asap and keeps it clean. The CO brand cleaner didn’t do diddly.[/QUOTE]

I picked up that tip here on COTH years ago - I just use straight rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle and spritz it after every ride. I’ve been doing this for years (helmet, paddock boots, even gloves) and it hasn’t ruined anything, and my helmet never stinks.
