FAQs

What is the GCX2 fabric?

GCX2 is a two-layer fabric engineered by Gul, designed to be waterproof and breathable. It prevents water penetration while allowing moisture vapor to escape.

What are the waterproof and breathability ratings?

The Gamma Spraytop has a minimum waterproof rating of 5000 mm and a breathability rating of 5000 g/m/24h.

How do I clean the spraytop?

Rinse with fresh water after use. Machine wash cold with mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softener. Hang to dry or tumble dry low.

Is this spraytop suitable for all types of watersports?

Yes, it is designed for a variety of watersports, including kayaking, sailing, and paddleboarding.

How do I maintain the waterproof performance?

Rinse the spraytop after each use. Re-proof the garment periodically using a suitable waterproof treatment.

What should I wear underneath the spraytop?

Wear base layers appropriate for the weather conditions. Consider moisture-wicking materials for optimal performance.

How do I adjust the collar, waistband, and wrist seals?

The collar, waistband, and wrist seals are adjustable. Tighten these features to create a snug fit and prevent water from entering the garment.

Troubleshooting

Water is penetrating the garment.

Check that all seals (collar, cuffs, waist) are properly adjusted and snug. Re-proof the garment using a suitable waterproof treatment.

The garment feels damp inside.

Ensure you are not over-layering, leading to excessive perspiration. Consider wearing a breathable base layer. If the garment is old, re-proof it.
