FAQs
What age is the 2-3 size for?
This size is designed specifically for children aged 2 to 3 years old.
Is this suit chlorine resistant?
While the material is designed for pool use, it is best practice to rinse it in fresh water after every swim to maximize durability.
Does this provide full body protection?
It provides comprehensive coverage for the torso, shoulders, and neck, which are the most vulnerable areas for sunburn.
Can I machine wash this suit?
Hand washing in cool, fresh water is highly recommended to preserve the elasticity and UV protection properties of the fabric.
Does the suit offer protection from sand?
Yes, the full-coverage design creates a barrier that prevents sand from irritating the skin, which is ideal for beach play.
Troubleshooting
Zip is sticking
Check for sand or salt crystals in the teeth of the zipper; rinse with fresh water and gently brush the area clean.
Suit feels too tight
Ensure the child is within the 2-3 age sizing bracket; if the suit restricts breathing or movement, discontinue use and size up.
Fabric looks dull after long-term use
This is often caused by chlorine exposure; regular rinsing in fresh water immediately after swimming is the best preventative measure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Splash About suit, always rinse it thoroughly in fresh, cool water immediately after use in salt or chlorinated water. This helps prevent the breakdown of the fabric fibers. Do not use harsh detergents, bleach, or fabric softeners, as these can compromise the UV protection coating. When drying, avoid direct sunlight; hang the suit in a shaded, well-ventilated area to air dry. Ensure the suit is completely dry before folding it for storage to prevent mildew.
