Quick answer: Clean a helmet visor with a skin-safe helmet cleaner and a soft microfibre cloth — never a rough cloth, tissue or harsh solvent, which scratch the coating. For fogging, clean first, then apply an anti-fog.
The safe way to clean a visor
- Spray a little helmet cleaner on the visor or a microfibre cloth.
- Wipe gently in one direction.
- Let it air-dry — no rubbing.
What never to use
No tissue, no rough cloth, no petrol/thinner — they scratch and cloud the visor permanently.

FAQ
Why does my visor fog? Warm breath on cold plastic. A clean visor + anti-fog helps most.
