How do you run steramine through it while suited up? A squeeze bottle or something?

I put a piece of 1/4 ID on a sharkbite and a male QD on the other side. The SB is glued onto a Costco bottle cap because I have oodles of those. I mix a tab before leaving the house (warm water) and just leave it on the truck. Switch the caps when u want to use it and I'm good to go.
Nice! My next little project. Thanks. Did you consider using water/vinagre mix?

Yes, but a 200ct bottle of steramine was $10 from Walmart. That's a 2 year supply for me, more of I break the tab in half for a Costco water bottle.
Just received mine and it looks like it’s a well made suit for the price. Need to trim a ring off the silicone neck seal as it’s way too tight and rolling over on itself.
Not so sure on the undersuit though. Seems to be too long in the torso with 4-6” below crotch level and the legs seem too long too. Also baggy in places especially around the backside.
Seaskin say it’s meant to allow mobility and to see how I get on when diving but not convinced. The suit was made to measure to the measurements taken for the Drysuit. It’s the Thinsulate 150 version.
I’m thinking maybe a closer fitting stretch type undersuit like a Waterproof Body X or 2X might be better

They said there should be room for movement but the suit is much too big. It’s as if they have allowed for a telescopic torso in the undersuit too. I thought it should be neat fitting

OP
Unless he did something weird, he would have given Seaskin one set of numbers, which they use for making the suit and the undies. So, if the suit itself fits correctly, that kind of confirms the #s are good.
It sounds like they just screwed up when making the undersuit.
Perhaps ask them for a few reference measurements of what the undersuit SHOULD be, and check it yourself (@Deezer-D).
