How do I strip the logo off of a Riddell Pocket Pro Helmet?

I am trying to remove the logo that was painted on a Houston Texans pocket pro helmet. I need a blank shell so that I can create my fantasy league football helmet. I thought I read that Brasso would do the job, but it has not worked for me. Can anybody help me?

try soaking a sponge in vinegar and applying it to the logo, when it starts bubbling you should be able to peel it off.

When it comes to choosing the right motorcycle helmet, it's hard to decide which shape, style, and size is going to best fit your needs. Because there so many different types of helmets available today, it's important that you research the pros and cons of each type of helmet, consider the features of each motorcycle helmet style, and then weigh all of those factors in when determining which helmet is the right one for you.

So what are the pros and cons of each motorcycle helmet style? Well there are so many that if we decided to discuss each and every detail about every type of helmet, we would be here for days. So let's stick to the basics and talk briefly about the major categories of motorcycle helmets which are full face helmets, three quarter shell helmets, and half shell helmets.

Full face helmets cover the entire head and face and offer the most protection of all motorcycle helmet types. The full face helmet shell starts from the base of the neck and extends all the way over the head to the lower portion of the chin and then wraps around the sides of the head to provide maximum coverage. An opening on the front of the helmet which extends from ear to ear allows the rider to see out of the helmet. This opening is covered by a plastic shield which can be lifted up to remain open or closed completely to provide maximum protection for the eyes.

When closed, the shield also protects the face from over exposure to wind and cold as well as flying debris. In the event of an accident, the full face helmet will offer more protection to your head because your entire head would be covered. Another type of full face helmet is the modular or flip-up helmet. Like the traditional full face helmet, the modular helmet has a plastic shield which covers the opening over your eyes. The modular helmet has an added feature of being able to flip up the front portion of the helmet which covers the face. This provides extra ventilation to the face and head which cannot be provided by the traditional full face helmet.

Three quarter shell helmets cover the entire head except for the face which offers less protection than the full face helmet. The shell extends from the base of the neck over the top of the head to just above the brow line. The shell then extends down the sides of the face just below the ears and the wraps around the sides of the head. Most three quarter shell helmets are equipped with three metal snaps located just above the brow line on the exterior of the helmet. These snaps are used for fastening removable face shields which extend from the brow line to just below the chin. The shields provide similar functionality to that of the front of the full face helmet, but there is less protection because the helmet shell does not wrap completely around the head and face. The shield, when used properly, does offer protection from flying debris, excess wind, and cold temperatures. Three quarter helmet shields can be easily adjusted to sit in an upright position, completely exposing the face, or in a downward position which provides the most protection as described above.

Finally, the half shell helmets cover only the upper half of the head and provide the least amount of protection, but the most amount of freedom when it comes to helmet coverage. The shell extends from the top of the neck over the top of the head to just above the brow line, and then wraps around the sides of the head just above the ears. The half helmet shell provides the most exposure to wind, which if you are riding in warmer temperatures, may be more beneficial to the overall comfort of the rider. Some half shell helmets come with a removable visor which can be used to protect the eyes of the rider. The half shell helmet provides for the most freedom, and is less confining than full face helmets or three quarter helmets.

Each helmet style has distinct features and characteristics that are separate from the others. Full face helmets cover the entire head and offer maximum protection from injury, and from flying debris and wind. Three quarter helmets provide protection to the entire head, minus the face, and offer more ventilation to the face than the full face helmets. Half shell helmets provide the most ventilation and are the least constraining of all helmets. When it comes to picking the right helmet, it really depends on your personal preference and it's up to you to decide which features we mentioned above are most important to you. Making the decision based on what you really want is going to make your riding experience more enjoyable in the long run.
