Frequently-asked questions about Cooltan tan through swimwear
We have collected questions and answers to many of the most common questions about our product. If you have a suggestion about a topic that should appear on this page, please send it to admin@shop4swimwear.com.
How does the Cooltan tan through fabric work?
Cooltan's unique tan through fabric (MicroSol IV) is made using a special knitting technology which creates thousands of tiny pores in the fabric. These pores allow a significant percentage of the sun's tanning rays to pass through the material to the skin. This filtering process is comparable to a SPF between 5 and 10 depending on skin type, time of day, and UV index.
Is it possible to get a sunburn through a tan through swimsuit?
It would take a rather prolonged exposure on a mid-summer day to get a sunburn. The key to adding a little color to your life is moderation. Overexposure to the sun will not help you achieve a tan any faster and of course is not recommended.
Is Cooltan tan through swimwear see-through?
Cooltan tan through swimwear is guaranteed not to be see through when worn wet or dry. This remarkable feature is achieved with unique prints which create a high contrast of colors. This high contrast combined with the small pore size of MicroSol IV create an optical inability for the eye to see past the material when the suit is worn while still allowing the sun's UV tanning rays to penetrate.
Can tan through swimwear be worn in a tanning bed?
Certainly! Wearing tan through swimwear in a tanning bad will give even better results than in natural sunlight but be aware that the SPF levels of the suit will tend to be lower due to UV rays coming from multiple light sources (tanning lamps) rather than from a single source (the sun) as it does during outdoor tanning. SPF levels will therefore range from 2 to 6 depending on the type of tanning bed used and extra care must be taken to avoid sunburn. |
