ION Rashguard LS women

Care instructions

• After use: Rinse the rash guard in cold, clean water immediately after each use to remove salt water, chlorine, and sunscreen.
• Washing: Machine wash at max. 30 °C on a gentle cycle. Use mild detergent without fabric softener, as conditioner breaks down the elastane fibers.
• Drying: Do not tumble dry. Hang the top to dry in the shade, away from direct sunlight, which can damage the fabric and fade the color.
• Storage: Make sure the rash guard is completely dry before putting it away. Store it in a cool, dry place - do not fold it up in a wet wet bag.
• Ironing and dry cleaning: Do not iron or dry clean, as heat damages the elastic material.
