If the helmet is gel-coated fiberglass, then you could use anything on it without worry. The best thing I found to remove old paint from fiberglass, is Airplane stripper, in the blue spray can. You can find it at most automotive stores. Spray it on heavy, let it sit for about a half-hour, then wipe everything right away. Use some acetone or laquer thinner to clean-up any residue. You probably won't be able to get it all out of any fine details, but you'll do what you need to.
