Can this swimsuit be used for lap swimming?

Is this swimsuit suitable for sun protection?
The high neckline offers additional elegant coverage and some degree of sun protection for the décolletage area.
How should I clean the gold zip detail?
Hand wash the swimsuit in cold water. It is recommended to avoid harsh detergents and to gently clean the zip with a soft brush if needed, ensuring it is thoroughly rinsed and dried.
What does 'contrasting side panels' mean for the fit?
The contrasting side panels are strategically placed design elements intended to contour the body, creating a more streamlined and flattering silhouette.

Troubleshooting
Gold zip feels stiff or difficult to move.
Gently clean the zip with a soft brush and mild soap, then rinse thoroughly. Ensure it is completely dry before attempting to move it. Avoid forcing the zip.
Fabric losing elasticity or color fading.
Ensure you are hand washing with cold water and avoiding harsh chemicals. Always rinse the swimsuit thoroughly with fresh water after each wear, especially after exposure to chlorine or saltwater, and dry flat away from direct sunlight.
Swimsuit feels uncomfortable or restrictive.
Confirm you have selected the correct size. While designed for a flattering fit, if discomfort persists, consider if the paneling or neckline style is suited to your body shape and activity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This swimsuit requires no setup as it is a ready-to-wear garment. It is designed for adult female wear. To maintain its quality and appearance, particularly the gold zip detail and fabric properties, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Hand wash only in cold water. Avoid using bleach or harsh detergents.
- Drying: Gently squeeze out excess water and lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight.
- Ironing: Do not iron. If necessary, steam lightly on a very low setting, avoiding the gold zip.
- Material Care: The polyester fabric is durable, but prolonged exposure to chlorine or saltwater without rinsing can degrade its elasticity. Always rinse after use.
