Default Helmet Care?

I bought a new helmet with a smoked chrome face shield. What does everyone treat their faceshields with to protect them and to repel water?

Harley Spray Polish. Paper towels and toilet paper scratch as well, don't use.

Any spray that can be used on a Lexan or plastic will work fine. And, no paper or even bath towels! Use microfiber cloth. You can get 16 of them for about $9 at Costco.

For the inside, try to wear a doo-rag or bandana under the helmet while riding. This will help minimize the amount of sweat to your liner. It will also help reduce the helmet "shakes" while riding.
