Product Information

Full details

The Splash About Long Sleeve Rash Top is designed for parents seeking reliable, high-coverage sun protection for their children during water activities. Offering a UPF 50+ rating, this garment ensures superior protection against harmful UV rays while providing comfort through its soft, fully lined interior. While it excels in sun safety and durability, users should be aware that the high-neck design and long sleeves mean it takes slightly longer to dry than a standard swimsuit.

FAQs

What does UPF 50+ mean?

UPF 50+ indicates that the fabric allows only 1/50th of the sun's UV radiation to reach the skin, providing excellent protection.

Is this rash top chlorine resistant?

Yes, it is designed for use in chlorinated pools, though rinsing with fresh water after use is essential to maintain fabric quality.

Does this rash top protect against jellyfish stings?

While the fabric provides a physical barrier, it is primarily designed for UV protection and should not be relied upon as complete protection against marine life stings.

How should I choose the right size?

This model is sized for children aged 2-3. We recommend checking your child's current clothing fit against standard sizing charts to ensure optimal comfort.

Can I put this in the washing machine?

Hand washing is recommended to preserve the integrity of the fabric and the UV protection finish.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty zipping up the top

Ensure that no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth and that the child is standing still; if the zip feels stiff, rinse any sand out of the zipper mechanism.

Fabric feels loose after repeated use

Check that the garment has been washed according to instructions; avoid high heat, which can damage the elasticity of the fabric.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent UPF 50+ sun protection rating
  • Fully lined for superior comfort and chafe-prevention
  • Easy-to-use front zipper for quick changes
  • High neckline provides extra coverage for the chest and neck

Cons

  • Long-sleeve design may take longer to dry
  • Limited to specific age-based sizing
  • Requires proper rinsing to maintain fabric integrity

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Splash About Rash Top, rinse the garment in fresh water immediately after every use in salt or chlorinated water. Hand wash in cool water using a mild detergent when necessary, and always air dry in the shade to prevent the material from breaking down under direct sunlight. Avoid using bleach, tumble dryers, or ironing, as these can compromise the UV protection fibers. The sizing is specifically catered to children aged 2-3 years, and the fit should be snug but not restrictive to allow for natural swimming movements.
