Only thing that kills mold spores is strong peroxide and/or ultraviolet light exposure over a long period of time, nothing else will touch it.

 

Where you going to wear it while you tried the Microwave thing? The only reason I am asking is that we are looking for a new “Fearless Leader” north of the 49th, and it would help with the qualification process.

 

I Never knew that. I thought zapping in the microwave kills pretty much anything....guess not

 

Is it really mold or does it just smell musty ? My wife bought a couple of new helmets from a garage sale that smelled kinda musty. Aired them out and wrapped some charcoal in a rag and placed it in them for awhile. Seemed to work with no smell what so ever.

 

You’re worried about maybe a couple hundred bucks from 10 years ago?

 

Not whatsoever...I was lookin at it as a new helmet that needed a cleaning....nothing more, nothing less

 

Yes...the padding hardens over time.

 

A lot of people’s heads harden over time too.

 

Cram it full of news papers and put it in a plastic bag for a week or two.......should do it.......

 

Saturate it with febreeze then put it on a heater vent over night.
