How do I use Rinsd?
Rinsd is a two-tablet system: dissolve both tablets in about 5L of fresh water between 15 and 38 Deg.C, add your wetsuit, agitate , and let it soak for 15 minutes . Rinse thoroughly after use.
What's the difference between the two tablets?
The Refresh tablet removes salt, sweat, and contaminants. The Repel tablet kills bacteria and fungi that can damage your gear and your skin.
How often should I clean my wetsuit?
We recommend using Rinsd after every 3 uses, depending on frequency and water conditions. Regular cleaning helps prolong the life of your wetsuit and maintain hygiene.
Can I reuse the solution?
For optimal effectiveness and hygiene, we recommend preparing a fresh solution for each wash.
If wetsuits aren't too dirty a wash could work for all the family - based on 4/3mm wetsuits.
Do I need to rinse off the wetsuit after using the wash?
Yes, after soaking, rinse your wetsuit thoroughly with clean water to remove any remaining solution that has removed dirt.
Is it necessary to wear gloves or other protective gear when using Rinsd?
Due to its concentrated nature, handle the dry product with care:
Avoid direct contact with dry powder/ tablets: For bulk use the provided scoop to measure the product.
Minimize skin contact with the solution: If you have sensitive skin, consider using a tool like a paddle to agitate the solution.
Rinse hands thoroughly after use
How long does a pack last?
A standard pack contains 8 washes (16 tablets). We generally recommend washing every 3rd use for a deep clean and rinsing well in-between.
Is Rinsd safe for sensitive skin?
Our formula is fragrance-allergen free and developed with skin safety in mind. Rinsing off the wetsuit after its cleaned will remove any residue.

Bacteria, sweat, salt, and urine can build up in neoprene. Rinsd removes these and keeps your gear fresh and hygienic.
