    Hi

    Today I got this FJ Helmet.

              just my opinion let is as found.. to clean this piece destroy the patina of the last decades and after cleaning you see
              only a rusted helmet .

                  I would leave it as is. Cleaning it risks ruining it. Just keep it in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and temperature extremes and it should continue to exist for future generations.

                    Agree, best left as is.
