A fellow DM says he rarely rinses. What do you do?
 
Let us know when you make up your mind or convert this thread into a poll.

Done. Not a computer ace. What's Twitter?
 
I religiously rinse everything at the end of the day. Both hers and mine.

Just kidding.

Twitter is an irreversible, debilitating mental ailment that has infected a majority of the population. Internet forum participation is a symptom of an early form of the disease. While rarely fatal, Twitter has been known to ruin many careers. Politicians are extremely susceptible to terminal cases of Twitter.

Same here. Rinse everything, inside and out, dry, inspect, and if necessary, service. I do the same thing with the gear.
 
Depends, if I dive in fresh water I generally don't rinse my gear except if there is mud or sand but if I dive in salt water every thing gets soaked and rinsed ASAP post-dive.
 
I dive in a giant rinsing tank. I have no reason to rinse my gear other than getting the smell off.
 
I voted "rarely rinse" only because I dive mostly in freshwater. I do however rinse my gear religiously when diving in a pool or saltwater. Now if I'm diving in freshwater and decide to pee in my suit...? I won't even put in back in the car without rinsing first!
