The Proper Care of Rash Guards
Investing in the ideal rash guard to protect your body from the harmful rays of the sun requires the proper maintenance for garment durability and effectiveness.
The following basic steps are essential for its maintenance:
Step 1: Rinse the rash guard with fresh water immediately after wearing it.
Step 2: Never use hot water; only cool or lukewarm.
Step 3: Turn the garment inside out and handwash using biodegradable soap or swimsuit cleaner to help remove salt and chlorine.
Step 4: Air dry away from the sun or heat.
Step 5: Do not fold the garment because it can damage the fabric, making it less effective.
Good quality rash guards are made of high-quality fabrics. These fabrics need proper care to avoid unwanted results. Below you can find general advice for proper care and storage.
dasFlow’s General Advice:
Always wash by hand your rash guard only.
Air dry, away from the sun only.
To store it, hang it on a wooden or plastic hanger, or you can lay it flat to dry to avoid unwanted indentations.
When storing it, do not fold it because it weakens the fabric.
Do not store it in your car. Prolonged heat will weaken the fabric.
Never iron rash guards.
Stay away from harsh chemicals and aerosols. Stains are impossible to remove from this type of garment.
