FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this rashguard?

The primary purpose is to provide sun protection (UV protection) and to prevent skin irritation or rashes caused by friction during water sports and prolonged sun exposure.

Is this rashguard suitable for swimming?

Yes, it is highly suitable for swimming, offering UV protection and comfort in the water.

Can I wear this under a wetsuit?

Yes, it is designed to be worn comfortably under a wetsuit, providing an extra layer of comfort and preventing chafing from the wetsuit material.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The rashguard should fit snugly against your skin without being uncomfortably tight. It should allow for a full range of motion in your arms and shoulders. Check the brand's sizing chart for specific measurements.

Will this rashguard keep me warm in cold water?

This rashguard offers minimal insulation and is primarily designed for sun protection and rash prevention. It is not intended to keep you warm in cold water conditions.

What material is the rashguard made of?

The product description indicates it is made of Polyester, which is known for its durability, quick-drying properties, and UV resistance.

How do I clean the rashguard?

Rinse with cold, fresh water after each use. Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Hang dry in the shade. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and tumble drying.

Troubleshooting

Rashguard feels tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the fit is still too snug for your preference, consider trying one size up. Remember it is designed for a close fit to minimize drag and chafing.

Material seems to have lost elasticity.

This can happen with improper care. Ensure you are always rinsing with fresh water after use, washing on a cold, gentle cycle, and avoiding high heat during drying. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not in use.

Skin irritation is still occurring.

While designed to prevent rashes, individual sensitivities can vary. Ensure the seams are not causing friction; check the fit. Continue to rinse thoroughly after each use.
