Hi guys.

Was wondering if dents and scratches on the inside of an open cell wetsuit would have any effect on performance, and what could be done about them?

Got back home after a month away to find that my stepfather had somehow broken the hanger inside the wetsuit, and then hung it up by the hood. Where the hood had been against the hook, theres a very flattened spot, and the arms have been creased and scratched.

It's a 5mm Oceanos open cell suit, if that helps at all!

Cheers

I
