How to Clean and Care for Your Competition Bikini.
Congratulations on your competition! Now, protect your investment by cleaning your suit right away. Delaying makes tan and glue harder to remove.
Why Act Fast?
The sooner you clean, the easier it is—tan and adhesive break down quickly.
What NOT to Do
- Do NOT dry clean
- Do NOT machine wash
- Do NOT wait days/weeks. These can damage the fabric's shine and elasticity.
Step-by-Step Cleaning Instructions: These steps work for bikini, figure, physique, and wellness suits.
- Initial Rinse Rinse immediately in cold water to remove loose tan and glue.
- Prepare Your Solution: Fill the sink with cold water. Use Fels-Naptha bar soap (available on Amazon/Walmart—Purex brand). Avoid strong detergents.
- Gently Scrub Turn the suit inside out. Rub soap directly on soiled areas (inside only). Be gentle on the outside to protect the crystals.
- Rinse Thoroughly Rinse repeatedly until water runs clear.
- Air Dry & Store Hang to finish drying (away from direct sun). Store in a protective case like our Bikini Carry Case.
