Brilio.net - A blurry helmet visor can certainly be a problem for motorbike riders. This is because a dirty and opaque helmet visor risks blocking the view and reducing motorbike users' comfort while riding.
After investigating, this blurry helmet visor is caused by several things. Such as helmet users breaking through in the rain, passing through dusty roads, and cleaning helmet visors in the wrong way.
It's not uncommon for some people to decide to wash their helmets themselves. Instead of being clean, if the method is not correct, the helmet visor will actually become more opaque. Some even admitted that their helmet visors were full of scratches after cleaning them.
As a solution, you can clean your helmet visor using toothpaste. Apart from being easy to find, toothpaste also doesn't leave marks on the helmet visor. After scrubbing thoroughly, just rinse the helmet visor with clean water. As a result, the helmet visor shines like new again. If you love having to use toothpaste, how about it?
If you don't want your stock of toothpaste to go to waste, it turns out there are other cleaning agents you can use. As was done by YouTube user Riga Channel who used kitchen ingredients to clean helmet visors.
