SWIMSUIT CLEANER
Swimwear
We’re always asked if Soak will take out chlorine when washing swimwear.
The key to washing swimwear is getting all of the ‘chlorinated water’ out during the Soak-ing process. Soak does not neutralize chlorine; it helps remove the chlorinated water, and other dirt from the suit. Ingredients that neutralize chlorine tend to be harsh and also potentially damaging to fibers. Chlorine damages fibers when it is on the swim suit, in the water, while the swimmer is wearing it, stretched, over their body. Once out of the water, Soak works to remove chlorine, dirt, sweat and other particles from the swimwear itself, leaving a clean, fresh and chlorine free swimsuit.
The smell of the chlorine can live beyond the actual chlorine, when you swim a lot, ever notice how even after the hot shower, you still smell like a pool? Make sure when you Soak your suit, there’s enough water to flow freely around your suit. If there isn’t enough water and movement around the suit, the chlorine and dirt doesn’t have enough water flow to sufficiently come out. Swimming a lot? A double soak/ rinse combination is great to further remove chlorine smell if it remains after the first Soak. Or, wash it in the shower, then Soak at home. When I wash my swimsuit after being in the pool, it gets a quick rinse with Soak (which doesn’t take out all of the chlorine smell) and then a proper long Soak at home, which does.
Soak is made from a premium ingredient structure that is still gentle on your skin/ hands, while cleaning your swimsuit. Although Soak is no-rinse, if the swimsuit has been in chlorinated water for a prolonged time, we encourage rinsing.
No wash product can fully restore the damage that is done to fibers when they are stressed while on the body and in chlorine. Soak ensures that the swimwear is cleaned properly, prolonging its life and continued use.
