Think it would be ok if I used Armor All on my helmet? Its a matte finish and gets dull and kinda dirty easly.

Just don't use Armorall inside and you'll be fine - and keep it away from the shield.

Only concern would be if a petro based cleaner such as armorall affect the plastics of the helmet? - My guess would be no - it's painted and clearcoated - it would be hard for the armorall to get to the actual structural components of the shell. - I'm more of the polish/wax method - though I haven't bothered yet - a scratched/dull helmet just shows use.

a good shot of windex multisurface will clean it up somethin with alcohol to help evaporate it. but if you have a tinted or mirror shield DON"T use it on that, I managed to wiped the chrome finish of my faceshield when i was scrubbing hard to get bugs off,
or
Mild soap and water will be fine too.
