Powerful non-biological cleaner for wetsuits, and neoprene items. Deodorises and extends the life of your wetsuit by cleaning away salt, chlorine and organic residue and leaving it soft and supple.

Wetsuits can be expensive, so caring for them is important to ensure they last as long as possible…

Nikwax Wetsuit Refresh deodorises and removes the build-up of salt, chlorine, body oils, urine, and other contaminants from wetsuits and neoprene items. All these contaminants have the potential to degrade the neoprene, and this can cause it to wear out more quickly. By removing these contaminants, eliminating odours, and keeping neoprene soft and supple, Nikwax Wetsuit Refresh extends the lifetime of treated items.

How do wetsuits work?...

Wetsuits and other neoprene items are specifically designed to keep you warm in the water, by insulating or helping to retain body heat. They trap a thin layer of water between your skin and the wetsuit, this layer of water is heated up by your body, keeping you warm. Essentially the wearer is always wet – hence the name.

Use Nikwax Wetsuit Refresh when your wetsuit gets stiff and smelly…

Wetsuits typically have a hard life, from surfing to scuba diving, they get well used and often in harsh environments. It is best practice to rinse your wetsuit after every use, but once your wetsuit gets stiff and smelly, you definitely need to give it a good clean! We recommend using Nikwax Wetsuit Refresh regularly, even before it gets stiff to ensure it lasts as long as possible.

Nikwax Wetsuit Refresh will eliminate odours and remove any nasty contaminants including urine. It will also condition your wetsuit so it is supple and comfortable.

As with all Nikwax products, Nikwax Wetsuit Refresh is made with care for the environment…

Nikwax Wetsuit Refresh’s effective cleaning formula does not include any biocides, enzymes or biological agents which means they are kinder to your skin and the environment. So, when you clean your wetsuit with Nikwax Wetsuit Refresh you can be confident that you are not harming aquatic life.

Nikwax is committed to maximising enjoyment of the great outdoors with minimal environmental impact. We go beyond industry best practice to ensure our products continue to be safer for people, and our planet.

We have never used PFAS or aerosol propellants in our products. Our bottles and caps are made from 100% recycled and recyclable plastic.

Neoprene is not biodegradable, so by extending the life of your wetsuit you will prevent more neoprene going to landfill.
