Hi Nick, I honestly think nothing needs to be done to it.

Cheers, Ade.

cheers Ade what preserving it to stop more possible rusting ??

[Adrian Stevenson]

Hi Nick, both helmets don't appear to have any active rust on them. Now that they out of a damp barn and are stored in a modern heated home you should have no problems.

Brush them off with a soft paintbrush to remove any loose rust particles, and that should do fine.

Cheers, Ade.
