Has anyone had any issues with their matte black helmets finish getting sticky? I did a little research and this isn't a unique issue, unfortunately the helmet is out of warranty and Bell says too bad!
Its so sticky you can palm the helmet and pick it up off a table!
I would like to use the helmet for other purposes than racing, but it's pretty much unusable at this point. I will try a few different products and see if I can remove the matte black rubberized "paint" and maybe paint it.
If anyone has any suggestions to remove this stuff let me know....I'm thinking acetone or maybe alcohol. It laughed at brake cleaner!
