DRYSUIT INSTRUCTIONS FOR BOTH SURFACE
Typhoon drysuit protection
Drysuits are designed to keep you dry. Warmth is provided by underclothing.
Dressing
Remove watches, rings and any item that could damage the seals before putting on.
Check the zip is fully closed and vent the suit by crouching down and allowing air to escape by opening the neck seal. When undressing open the neck seal with both hands before pulling over the head.
Fit
You should be able to move freely when wearing the suit. Check this by wearing the appropriate clothing and crouching down, raising the arms above the head, no tightness should be felt. Then when standing raise one leg with the thigh parallel to the ground and make sure that the leg length is correct. The latex seal can be increased in size by cutting just above the first moulding ring ensuring there are no nicks that can cause a weakness, this cannot be done with glide skin seals.
Care and Maintenance
Latex Seals
Latex seals are the most vulnerable part of a suit - store them in a cool, dark, uncontaminated atmosphere with no sharp creases and they should last as new for at least 9 months and work for some time after that. Apply french chalk or nonscented talc to seals before storing and before donning.
Zip Care
After use close the zip and wash it with clean fresh water, ensuring the zip teeth are free from sand, grit and dust. Then lubricate the teeth with a beeswax stick. If the zip snags then clear the teeth before closing further – never force the zip.
General Information
Contact with oil, petrol, paraffin, diesel and other similar fuels or solvents (including sun cream) will perish the latex and should be avoided, it may also damage other parts of the suit. Any contaminants should be washed off immediately with soapy water and the suit should then be rinsed in clean water, to minimise the damage.
Storage
The suit should be dried inside and out, then stored on a padded coat hanger between 0 to 20°C. The suit should be stored away from direct heat, sunlight or sources of ozone (e.g. electric motors).
Washing
Wash with fresh water and drip dry.
