Steramine is also a cationic surfactant to both clean and sanitize your dive equipment in one step. Unlike bleach or strong detergents, Steramine sanitizing solutions are non-irritating to the hands, non-corrosive to metals, non-staining, and odorless. Among the Dive Gear Express team members, our many years of experience with Steramine has demonstrated the sanitizer has no compatibility issues with any of the materials commonly seen in diving equipment such as rubber, silicone, neoprene, plastics, technical fabrics, mask optical coatings, chrome plated brass, aluminum, and stainless steel.
