Sun Tan Lotion / Black Tubes / White Marks

Guys

Any recommendations for Sun tan lotion that doesn't leave semi permanent white marks everywhere.

It seems a real struggle to get the marks off black tubes especially when the lotion has baked on in the sun.

I know not touching the tubes / washing hands is probably the obvious answer but that doesn't really work with young kids.

Thanks

David

Must have been a decent summer in 2013!

With any product you’re applying, then try on hidden area first. I like Rib Revive cleaner, but not sure it will work on sun block. Quick search throws up citrus cleaner or rubbing alcohol. After cleaning, wash the whole lot down with a light detergent and rinse. If it’s black hypalon and not fabric impression, 3M marine conditioner should offer some protection.
