Please read before bashing me, it is necessary.
I recently obtained a game-worn helmet from a storage unit in Florida. The inside of the helmet is littered with roach feces. I removed all the padding and quickly soaked each peice in a warm light bleach and water mix before wiping off with a rag. All feces, sweat, dirt and even shreds of grass were removed from the pads.
However...
The inside shell is still filled with small grains of roach crap. Any suggestions on how to remove the unwanted poo without damaging the already brittle "paint/chemical warnings" sticker or the impact "warning" sticker and the following stickers, players name & barcodes? ...and velcro? Please keep in mind that the remaining feces are plastered on the helmet like concrete. It will take a lot of elbow grease and warm water to disolve and remove the mess. How can I do it without damaging anything else?
In advance, I appreciate the suggestions.
