Care & Safety Maintenance
To maintain the thermal integrity and the professional satin finish of your Airspeed suit, it is highly recommended to have the garment professionally dry cleaned by a specialist familiar with fire-retardant racing apparel. Strictly avoid the use of bleach or fabric softeners, as these chemicals can permanently damage the Nomex® fibers and compromise the suit's safety rating. Always perform a thorough inspection of the stretch panels and seams for signs of wear or fuel saturation before every event to ensure your safety equipment is in peak condition.
