Does anyone know the buoyancy of polypropylene, such as that found in polypro rash guards? I'm thinking of adding one under my wetsuit to add warmth, but don't want to add weight to compensate, as that will upset my balance for slow, controlled swimming.

I know polypro by itself has a specific gravity of less than one, but this has a lycra blend in it. Does anyone have practical experience with these things?
