Great video!
BUT, i left my wettie gloves hood and booties, wet, in a towel in a rucksack for about 5 days unintentionally..!

Just doubled the amount of detergent etc and hoping it will do the job with a good long soak, if not, anyone have more ideas ?

I loved your video!
I applied this yesterday on my wetsuits. Lets see if it really works!
For now, what I can say is that the water smelled great and that it was brown’ish by the time I removed the wetsuits to rinse and hang…

Thanks!

So I tried the recipe…and my suit smells like mouthwash… I only used about 1 cap full. Used listerine too. Hmmmmm. Can you get non-flavored?

I’ve just used baking soda in a bucket of water but I doubt it kills bacteria. Also used that wetsuit cleaner in a bottle and that works great but I don’t really know what makes it different than any other “light duty” detergent. I like the use of antiseptic. Cool.
