I've got a sweaty smelly helmet.

After all these weeks of scorching hot temperatures, it has finally taken its toll ... my lining currently smells like Saddam Hussain's jockstrap.
It's a shoe neotec and only the cheek pads come out.. what's the best way of cleaning it??
I have seen a you tube video where it's cleaned with a bowl of Luke warm water and baby shampoo but he filled the helmet up and used it like a washing bowl.
I've seen the muc off stuff for £8 .. but does that really work.
Any help appreciated

Everything comes out of a neotec. Go online to Shoei, product support, download care and cleaning leaflet. You end up with 2 cheek pads, ear/speaker covers, 2 strap covers and a main bit that looks like a 1970 cycle helmet.

As above. Hand-wash it in the sink with luke-warm water and washing powder, rinse thoroughly and leave to dry somewhere warm. Mine goes in the conservatory and takes a day or so to dry depending on how sunny it is.

Did you by any chance attend a Catholic boarding school as a young lad?

I was always on my knees in front of the priest getting splashed by his holy water
