Care & Safety Maintenance
To preserve the thermal integrity of the SFI 5 rating and the premium satin finish, it is recommended to dry clean this jacket or wash it on a delicate cycle using a mild, non-detergent soap. Strictly avoid the use of bleach or fabric softeners, as these chemicals can degrade the flame-retardant properties of the material. Always perform a visual inspection for any fuel contamination, seam wear, or zipper functionality before every event to ensure maximum driver safety.
