New Helmet

[The Spaceman_imp]

Anyone use wax or other protectant on their helmet? I picked up a new Arai a few months ago, and I'd like to get something on it.

My previous helmet was a low-maintenance solid blue color, but this one has a nice sparkly metallic silver finish.
I'm thinking a spray wax on a towel might work best, as the typical wax I use on the bike will probably get into all the helmet's vents, etc...and eventually leave the dreaded white spots.

I use regular carnauba wax on mine, however, I'm very careful to only apply it to the painted or hard surfaces. You can keep it off the vents, hinges, etc. if you take your time. We have a LOT of bugs on the road here, so I find it's worth the effort.
