| CARE
INTRUCTIONS for a longer lasting swimsuit
• ALWAYS rinse in clear cold water, or cold
hand wash in very mild soapy water to remove perspiration,
suntan lotions, oils and chemicals. Never leave to soak.
• Hang out immediately, drip dry out
of direct sunlight.
• AVOID rough surfaces, excessive contact
with suntan oils and lotions, over chlorinated and over heated
spas and pools ….in excess, all will damage the
fabric fibres.
• DO NOT use strong detergent
or fabric softeners, bleach, leave rolled up wet, or dry clean,
iron, spin or tumble dry.
• No fabric is guaranteed for over
chlorinated and over heated spas and pools. Regular pool swimmers
should use a chlorine resistant swimsuit.
• Particular care should be taken with
contrasting colours in the one swimsuit. Even though the best
possible dyes available world wide are used, colours may transfer
if left bundled up wet. Drip dry immediately out of direct
sunlight.
Useful Tips
• To remove sand from swimsuit, allow to dry,
stretch out your swimsuit and flick the fabric, the sand falls
out easily.
• Choose the right swimsuit
for your needs.
Minimize colour loss in fluro or bright colour
(Only for nylon/ elastane fabrics)
• Soak your new swimsuit
in a mixture of vinegar and water for 30 minutes only. (1
tablespoon of vinegar to 1 litre of water). Do not rinse out
the vinegar; swimsuit needs to dry with vinegar in it. Dry
inside.
• If bright or fluro colours
go streaky, then gentle machine wash separately in cold water
(use a lingerie bag). The gentle agitation of the machine
wash will make the streaks disappear.
• Never use warm or hot
water and always wash separately.
