I don't know if it matters, but it is scent free and alcohol free and god-knows-what-else free.

But I suspect that just keeping the suit clean is what is most important. I used to try to soak it in expensive wet suit cleaners, but then you have to weight it to hold it under water and its time consuming. My present routine is to turn it inside out, lay it out on the tailgate of my truck or on the ground, and sponge it off with liquid laundry detergent or Simple Green poured on the sponge so that it is not diluted much. Then hang it inside out on a hanger, out of direct sunlight, to dry.

Bill,

Thanks yet again for your timely response

I'm going to order a bottle of Unicare, but which do you and your friends use --> Original (Retail) Formula or Classic (Salon) Formula?

Also, using simple green with a sponge sounds like an easy method. You rinse it off after, right?
