  • Best way to wash down floatation suit

    Had my sundridge 2 piece about a year now still in mint condition just has the odd bait splat on it and a mucky knee off kneeling down to bait up, what's best way to wash this down ? Don't want to wash the waterproofing off, was just gonna hang it up and put the hose on light spray and wipe it down. Lee

        Always put mine through washing machine, quick wash, then leave it to dry
        and waterproof it with fabsil, never had any probs with it leaking in water etc.

          You'll never wash it properly with a home sprinkle. Just throw it in the washing machine on a low temp. As Stevie says re waterproof it with fabsil , it's the best waterproofer out there.

          My company does contract shoe repairs for Johnson's the cleaners so I get my suits cleaned of them and they come out looking new again. You get a full wash and dried within a day.

            Is that the spray on one David or is it worth getting a big tin to last longer?a suppose the spray on one will be easier to applie like?
