How to Take Care of Wetsuits?
When putting on your wetsuit, be careful not to dig your nails into the neoprene. Always keep your hands as flat as possible when you pull the suit up. To make the wetsuit fit perfectly, do not be afraid to pull up on the sleeves (above your wristwatch) and on the legs just under your calves. You want to have the feeling that the wetsuit is too short on you. This way minimum water is going to seep into your suit because the neoprene is snug around your wrists and ankles. Do not use petroleum lubricant on contact with your wetsuit. It is recommended to rinse you suit after each use with clean cold water. This is especially true if the water you had been swimming in was oily or filled with chlorine. To dry, do not put the wetsuit in direct sunlight. Instead, put the wetsuit in the shade or inside. Never put your wetsuit on or very close to a heat source. Always keep your wetsuit on a plastic hanger with very wide shoulders, especially during winter time. Store the wetsuit at room tempera
