Wetsuit care

Hi
I have used my wetsuit a few times now and always rinsed it in the bath inside out and hang out to dry in the shadow. Will never ever wee in it :blush: so Im not concerned about 'funky' odors.
So is the rinse enough or does it need some kind of detergent as well every now and then?

Thanks :thumbsup:

A cold water rinse will generally suffice, however there is wetsuit cleaner such as #mce_temp_url#

Also, don't hang it in direct sunlight, or for more than 2 weeks as that can wreck the material in the shoulders

In my surfing days we always just washed-em out in the bath with plenty fresh water. One night when late back from the beach I left it in the bath to 'soak' and it scared the sh1t out of my mother when she went for a pee in the middle of the night ....

If you surf, wetsuit pissing is necessary during the winter months. The steam eminating from around the neck and the contented smile from the occupier is a sure sign ....
