Open your eyes. Look at the helmet. Has its appearance changed?
Does it appear to have uneven or bubbly surfaces?
No. It is not heat damaged.
Yes. It's heat damaged.
Either way. Use the helmet. Don't use the helmet. Hell if I'm going to recommend what you should do with a helmet, heat damaged or not. Oh, it's generally considered polite to ask the owner's permission first. But you are free not to too. Your choice.
