Care before and during the Dive
Avoid standing your fins on the tips of the blades for any extended period of time.
Avoid hot temperatures and hot surfaces, as these can damage the fin.
Avoid placing the fins in a car trunk on hot days, as the temperatures inside car trunks can exceed the temperature tolerances of the fin and the blades may distort.
Care after the Dive
Rinse thoroughly with fresh water and towel dry before final storage.
Fins Storage
Store in a cool, dry, and protected place out of direct sunlight.
Chemicals and Solvents
Avoid any contact with alcohol, oil, gasoline, aerosols, or chemical solvents.
Do not expose any part to aerosol spray, as some aerosol propellants attack or degrade rubber and plastic materials.
Do not use any type of alcohol, solvent, or petroleum-based substance to clean or lubricate any part. Do not store your equipment near any oil, gasoline, chemicals, or solvents.
