Keeping your neoprene bag clean and in good condition is essential for its longevity and continued usability. Cleaning a stinky neoprene bag can be done effectively with a few simple steps:

 

Rinse With Fresh Water: Start by rinsing the neoprene bag thoroughly with fresh water. This helps remove any surface dirt, debris, or salt residue.

Spot Clean: Use a soft brush or cloth dampened with the cleaning solution to spot-clean any stubborn stains or areas of the bag that are particularly smelly.

 

Rinse Properly: After spot cleaning, rinse the entire bag again with fresh water to remove any soap residue and ensure thorough cleaning.

 

Air Dry: Hang the neoprene bag in a well-ventilated area to air dry completely. Avoid direct sunlight, as prolonged exposure to sunlight can degrade the neoprene material which affects longevity.

Store Properly: To prevent future odor buildup, make sure to store the neoprene bag in a clean, dry place when not in use. Avoid storing it in damp or humid environments, as these conditions can promote mold and mildew growth, leading to unpleasant odors.

 

By following these steps, you should be able to effectively clean and freshen up your stinky neoprene bag, restoring it to its original condition.
