FAQs

What does UPF 50+ protection mean?

UPF 50+ means the fabric blocks 98% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, providing excellent protection for your baby's skin.

Is the material comfortable for long wear?

Yes, the blend of recycled polyester and elastane is designed to be stretchy, soft, and quick-drying, ensuring comfort for extended periods, whether in or out of the water.

How do I clean the rashguard?

The rashguard can be machine washed at 30 degrees Celsius on a gentle cycle. Avoid bleach and tumble drying. It's best to wash with similar colors and dry flat or on a low setting.

What is the 'Baby Palm Smile' design?

This refers to the specific vibrant, tropical-themed pattern printed on the blue rashguard, characteristic of Molo's playful designs.

Can this rashguard be worn on its own?

Yes, it can be worn on its own as swimwear or as a protective layer over a swimsuit for added sun coverage.

What are the main benefits of using recycled polyester?

Troubleshooting

Rashguard is too tight or too loose

Refer to the size guide and ensure the correct size is selected. If the fit is still not ideal, consider the next size up or down based on the product's sizing chart.

Zipper is difficult to use

Ensure the fabric is clear of the zipper teeth before attempting to zip. Gently pull the zipper up and down. If it persists, check for any snags or apply a small amount of lubricant (like graphite from a pencil tip) to the zipper track.

Color fading after washing

Always wash according to the care instructions, preferably inside out and at a low temperature (30 degrees). Avoid harsh detergents and direct sunlight when drying. Washing with similar colors can also help prevent color transfer or fading.

Fabric feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are not using fabric softener, as this can sometimes affect the properties of technical fabrics. Stick to mild detergents and air dry when possible.
