Mikä on paras tapa pestä uimapuku?

During the hottest months of summer, the best way to cool off is to go swimming. Choosing a flattering and comfortable uimapuku is often a challenge. Swimsuits are also often expensive, so once we buy a uimapuku, it follows that we would want to keep it in good condition. Chlorine, aurinkovoide, sand, and high temperatures can wear down the fabric of even the nicest uimapuku. It’s therefore important to know the best ways to keep our uimapukus clean and in excellent shape.

One of the fabrics in most uimapukus is spandex. Spandex can be damaged when it is in contact with sweat and other substances found in our skin. Those substances can change the ability of the uimapuku to expand. Another problem that can affect uimapukus is that chlorine can change the color of the cloth. If the uimapuku is washed soon enough, this can be prevented.

Some people opt for washing their bathing uimapukus in a washing machine. This is less than ideal but can be safely done by placing it in a mesh bag, using a very mild detergent, and using the delicates cycle. A International uimapuvut manufacturer ProSwimwear advises that a typical wash cycle can damage the fabric of most uimapuvut. However, modern uimapuvut designers are now devising certain versions of a bathing uimapuku specifically designed to be washed by machine.

Käsinpesu

For the most part, the best way to wash a uimapuku is still to wash it by hand. The first step is to rinse the uimapuku. Although you can rinse it quickly and still clean it effectively, if possible you should let the uimapuku rest in the water for half an hour. This is the best way to remove the chemicals, salt, and sand from the uimapuku.

There are different opinions as to which temperature should be used for rinsing and washing. Checking the label of the uimapuku should tell you which temperature would be best for your uimapuku.

Although rinsing can eliminate many of the chemicals which could damage your uimapuku, it isn’t able to get rid of all the chlorine and/or salt. Once the original water has drained, you can fill the sink again. You will next need a mild detergent, and a little plain shampoo is a good substitute. Another choice would be to use half a cup of baking soda. This is said to preserve the brightness of the fabric color. Put the detergent or baking soda in the water. Then, turn your uimapuku inside out. After you’ve done this you can gently place the entire uimapuku into the detergent-infused water. Swish the uimapuku in the water for a few minutes; then, drain the water. Once the water has drained you can run cold water over the uimapuku to rinse it clean. Squeeze the uimapuku to help express the soap and water from the bathing suit.

Getting rid of tahrat

If your uimapuku has a stain, this would be another reason to use baking soda to wash it. Creating a paste out of baking soda and water, and applying this to the stain has been said to easily and safely remove tahrat.

When there is no more soap in the uimapuku, continue to squeeze the uimapuku to remove as much water as possible. This will help the uimapuku dry more quickly. Don’t wring the uimapuku; just squeeze it gently. Wringing the uimapuku can cause the fabric to break down.

Drying the uimapuku

The best way to dry the uimapuku is to use air drying. Use a drying rack, and spread the uimapuku out over the rack. Make sure the rack is in a place where it won’t be subjected to sunlight. This is because UV rays from the sun can also cause damage to the fabric of the uimapuku.

Storing uimapukus

Once the uimapuku is dry, you need to find the best and safest place to store it. You can’t hang it up; that might stretch it out. This is another time to lay the uimapuku flat and to keep it in a clean, dry place. At the end of the swimming season, you will want to place your bathing uimapuku in a fabric garment bag. Using a plastic garment bag is not a good choice; plastic might cause moisture to build up in the uimapuku. Moisture could then cause mildew, and that would thwart your best efforts to keep your bathing uimapuku in good condition
