The bonded seams of your tech suits are a highly technical and advanced component. These seams are developed with special glue and are sensitive for chlorine and human body acids, such as; sweat. As the seams are very sensitive for these fluids it is very important to take good care of your tech suits, so the bonded seams last longer. To prevent the bonded seams from early stage damaging we advise to rinse your tech suit very well with water after each use and a hand wash with the technical laundry soap “hey wash” after three times of use. Hey wash is a technical laundry soap specially developed for performance fabrics. This technical soap deep cleans the fabric and makes sure your tech suit can last longer, so you race more times.

Here are some tips on how to properly use your tech suit:

  • Make sure your tech suit fits perfect, if you need any help with your sizing look at our Perfect Fitting
  • Use your tech suit only for racing
  • Wear your suit only when needed, if you are done with your race then take your suit off
  • Make sure you have enough time before your race to put on your tech suit by yourself, it’s best to do it by yourself!
  • After racing rinse your tech suit very well and lay it flat to dry

If your tech suit starts decreasing it shows when the bonded seams start to get grainy. At the Repair Service we offer you a solution to fix your corroded seams with new strong bonded seams. Find out more on www.robsport.nl/repair Note: Repaired tech suits are not FINA approved
