Raincoat, Muc-off and various helmet bits


I've been through a few varieties of helmet care gear and found most of it worse than useless. A few bits stand out though and after a year or so of riding through sun rain and snow in all temperatures I'm fairly set on my little bag of tricks that keep me able to see! 

Muc-off helmet cleaner and Anti Fog. This stuff has lasted me forever. I'd buy the entire range of Muc off products if it weren't for the price. Their cleaners and lubes are excellent. It's just a shame for the price of one bottle of degreaser, I managed 3 tins of Gunk which will last me forever in a spray bottle. The helmet cleaner needs two or 3 sprays and a wipe for a streak free removal of sand, salt, blood, flies, squirrels etc. Great stuff and the anti fog treatment, if applied before every ride, works perfectly. After losing my pinlock insert (visor flew off) I've had to go back to this stuff and fortunately it does the job well. 

The Raincoat Visor Rain Repellent does exactly what it says on the box. Still on my first box after nearly a year of daily riding. Lasts forever and has saved my skin a few times. Well worth the £10 or so. Bear in mind I do tend to clean and treat my visor after almost every ride in the rain.
