FAQs
Can I use this wetsuit in a swimming pool?
Yes, it is suitable for pools, but be aware that chlorine can degrade neoprene faster than saltwater, so rinse it thoroughly with fresh water immediately after.
How should I store my wetsuit?
Store it hanging in a cool, dark, and dry place. Never leave it bunched up in a bag or folded for long periods.
Is this wetsuit suitable for winter conditions?
This is a general-purpose steamer. While it offers thermal protection, it is designed for mild to cool conditions; check the thickness specifications if you are planning on entering freezing water.
How tight should the fit be?
The suit should be snug against your skin without restricting your breathing or circulation. It should feel like a second skin.
What is the best way to remove sand from the suit?
Soak the suit in a tub of fresh water and gently agitate it. Avoid rubbing the sand into the fabric, as this can cause premature wear.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty getting into the suit
Ensure the skin is relatively dry or use a dedicated wetsuit lubricant on ankles and wrists to help the suit slide on more easily.
Feeling cold in the water
Check that the suit is the correct size; if the suit is too large, it will allow cold water to flush through, preventing it from insulating effectively.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gul wetsuit lasts, always rinse the suit thoroughly with fresh, cold water immediately after every use to remove salt, sand, and organic debris. When drying, hang the suit on a wide, non-metallic hanger in a shaded area away from direct sunlight, as UV rays can degrade the neoprene material over time. Avoid using washing machines, tumble dryers, or harsh detergents. When putting on the suit, take care to avoid snagging the material with fingernails or jewelry, and ensure the zipper is free of obstructions before sealing.
