FAQs

How do I clean my Gul Response wetsuit?

Rinse your wetsuit thoroughly with fresh water after each use. You can also use a wetsuit shampoo for a deeper clean. Avoid using harsh chemicals.

How should I store my wetsuit?

Store your wetsuit in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. It's best to hang it or loosely roll it to avoid creases.

What is the warranty on the Gul Response wetsuit?

The warranty typically covers manufacturing defects. Check with the retailer or manufacturer for specific warranty details.

Can I use this wetsuit for all types of watersports?

The Gul Response 3/2mm Flatlock LongJane is versatile and suitable for many watersports, including surfing, paddleboarding, and recreational swimming. However, it may not be suitable for extreme cold water conditions.

How do I care for the zipper?

Rinse the zipper with fresh water after each use. Lubricate it periodically with a wetsuit zipper lubricant to ensure smooth operation.

What do I do if my wetsuit gets a tear?

Small tears can often be repaired with wetsuit glue. For larger tears or seam separations, professional repair may be required.

Troubleshooting

Zip is difficult to close.

Ensure the zip is clean and lubricated. Check for any obstructions. If needed, apply a wetsuit zipper lubricant.

Water is entering the wetsuit.

Check the seams and around the zip for any gaps. Ensure a proper fit. If water entry persists, consider seam repair or a thicker wetsuit.

Wetsuit feels tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have the correct size. If it's a new wetsuit, the material may loosen slightly with use. Consider a larger size if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Sizing: Refer to the sizing chart before purchasing to ensure a proper fit. A snug fit is important for optimal performance and warmth.
  2. Putting it on: Step into the wetsuit and pull it up over your legs, ensuring the suit is smooth against your skin. Insert your arms through the sleeves. Close the front zip, ensuring it is properly aligned and secured.
  3. Rinsing: After each use, rinse the wetsuit thoroughly with fresh water to remove salt, sand, and chlorine. This prevents the degradation of the neoprene.
  4. Drying: Hang the wetsuit inside out in a shaded area, away from direct sunlight and heat. This will help preserve the neoprene's elasticity.
  5. Storage: Store the wetsuit in a cool, dry place. Avoid folding it, as this can create creases that weaken the material. Rolling it loosely is a better option.
