RINSING PARACHUTE ASSEMBLY IMMERSED IN FRESH-WATER Any parachute, or its components, that has been immersed in a fresh water lake, river, or stream will not require rinsing unless it has been ascertained that the water is dirty, oily, or otherwise contaminated.   Procedures for handling a fresh water immersed parachute are as follows: 1.    Contaminated fresh water.  If the parachute, or its components, has been immersed in contaminated fresh water, rinse and dry (see Rinsing Parachute Assembly Immersed in Salt Water, above), and, if applicable, repair. 2.    Uncontaminated fresh water.  If the parachute, or its components, has been immersed in uncontaminated fresh water, it will be cleaned and dried as outlined in the “Cleaning Fabric Items With a Solution of Hand Dishwashing Compound”, “Drying Fabric Items”, and “Cleaning Metal Items” paragraphs above and below.  Minor discoloration of fabric items, resulting from immersion in uncontaminated fresh water, may occur. NOTE Fabric items will not be dried in direct sunlight or by laying an item on the ground. DRYING FABRIC ITEMS Dry fabric items as follows: 1.    Suspend or elevate the item in a well-ventilated room or in a heated drying room. 2.    Using electric circulating fans may reduce drying time. 3.    When heat is used, the heat temperature shall not exceed 160 degrees Fahrenheit (71 degrees Celsius).  The preferred temperature is 140 degrees Fahrenheit (60 degrees Celsius). CLEANING METAL ITEMS   Clean metal items as follows: CAUTION Use care not to damage the adjacent fabric materials. 1.    Remove burrs, rough spots, rust, or corrosion from metal items by filing with a metal file, or by buffing and polishing with abrasive cloth.
