faster than hanging alone. Frequent users should rinse with fresh water and occasionally use a capful of Wetsuit Shampoo or Suit Juice. We are big fans of Suit Juice because it not only cleans and protects, but helps you get in and out of your wetsuit easier. Be sure to store your wetsuit properly. Dents and creases could become permanent and result in loss of insulation. The best way to store your wetsuit is to lay it flat, or hanging from a wetsuit hangar.
I think this is going to be a well used piece of advice, always interested in others oppinions keep up the good work!
