Wetsuit cleaning made easy

• Shake thoroughly before use.
(the several strains of bacteria tend to separate)

• Pour 2oz of Pau Pilau wetsuit cleaner (6 caps full) into approximately a 5 gallon tub of water.

• Immerse wetsuit, booties, gloves, cap and agitate briskly saturating all of their surfaces in solution.

• Soak for at least 15 minutes. Longer is fine.

• Remove them. Don’t rinse. Air dry.

Wetsuit knowledge and Care


• A synthetic porous rubber subject to decomposing, neoprene is sensitive to UV sunlight and heat. Care to minimize exposure to sunlight and heat greatly extends wetsuit life-time.
• Store your wetsuit in a cool dark location preferably on a hanger. The hanger should be a wide body type to even the distribution of weight in the shoulders.
• Due to its porous elastic properties, environmental pollutants easily penetrate the material and can greatly reduce wetsuit life-time.
• Use Pau Pilau biological wetsuit cleaner immediately after use or as soon there after as possible to digest these harmful microcosms.
• Although neoprene is elastic, it is subject to cuts and abrasions much more so than most fabrics.
Special attention and care for your wetsuit to avoid abrasive objects while handling is important. Fingernails and jewelry can easily tear neoprene.
While soaking your wetsuit in a container, check for sharp edges or corners.
• An ounce of prevention….SIMPLY DO NOT FOLD YOUR WETSUIT – ESPECIALLY DRY, IT WILL CREASE CRACK CROAK!
• Again, the most suitable manner to care for your wetsuit is to hang it as mentioned above. May I roll it? Yes you may, BUT roll it with the zipper to the outside.
• Wetsuit Zippers: Keep them clean and dirt, grit free as much as possible. Lubricate fluids are good to use. Wax works in a pinch. When you are storing your wetsuit, do so with the zipper open. We hope this is helpful.

Never pull a stinky wetsuit on your body again!
