How to clean a sex doll?
Cleaning sex dolls requires gentle methods tailored to their material (TPE/silicone), focusing on “preventing material damage + thoroughly removing residue.” The process must cover both pre- and post-use steps. Below are specific procedures and precautions.
一. Essential Preparations Before Cleaning
First, confirm the doll’s material. Different materials have distinct care requirements; avoid tools that may cause damage when preparing supplies.
Confirm Material: Check product specifications to determine whether it is TPE (soft, prone to oil seepage, requires avoiding excessive friction) or silicone (stiffer, durable, only requires scratch prevention).
Prepare Tools:
Soft Tools: Lint-free soft cloth, specialized cleaning sponge (or baby washcloth), silicone/TPR internal cleaning brush (avoid hard-bristle brushes).
Cleaning Agent: Use a neutral, non-irritating product like baby bath gel or doll-specific cleaner (never use alcohol, iodine, or abrasive cleaners).
Supporting Items:
Warm water below 30°C (no hot water), clean towel, TPE-specific maintenance powder (TPE material only).
二. Key Post-Use Cleaning Steps (Core Process)
Clean immediately after use to prevent bodily fluids or lubricant residue causing material degradation or bacterial growth. Follow two steps: “External Cleaning” and “Internal Channel Cleaning.”
External Surface Cleaning (Entire Body)
Gentle rinsing: Move the doll to the bathroom (or lay on a waterproof mat). Slowly rinse the entire body with lukewarm water below 30°C. Avoid strong water pressure (to prevent washing away surface oils from TPE).
Mild degreasing: Apply a small amount of neutral cleanser to a soft cloth. Gently wipe the surface, focusing on removing residual lubricant and bodily fluid traces. Avoid vigorous rubbing (TPE material is prone to scratches).
Thorough Rinsing: Rinse away all detergent residue with warm water, ensuring no foam remains (residue may cause stickiness or material degradation).
Internal Channel Cleaning (Critical Areas)
Internal Flushing: Using a faucet with a spray nozzle (or a dedicated flushing device), slowly inject warm water into the channel while gently squeezing it to flush out internal residue. Repeat 2-3 times.
Deep Clean: Dilute a small amount of cleaner and pour it into the canal. Gently insert a specialized cleaning brush (with a soft bristle head) no deeper than the brush head length. Slowly rotate the brush clockwise to clean, then thoroughly rinse with warm water.
Absorb Moisture: Roll a clean, lint-free cloth into a strip and gently insert it into the canal to absorb moisture. Avoid vigorous wiping (to prevent damage to the canal lining).
三. Quick Pre-Use Cleaning
Even after long-term storage, perform a simple clean before use to prevent dust or maintenance powder residue from contacting skin.
Surface Dusting: Gently wipe the entire surface with a clean, soft cloth to remove surface dust.
Spot Cleaning: Focus on wiping areas that contact skin, such as the face, hands, and passage. Use a soft cloth dampened with a small amount of warm water (no need to reapply cleaner to avoid over-cleaning).
Dry and Prepare: Use a towel to absorb surface moisture. For TPE materials, lightly dust with a thin layer of maintenance powder to ensure the surface remains dry and non-sticky.
四. Post-Cleaning Maintenance and Storage (Extending Lifespan)
Post-cleaning maintenance directly impacts the doll’s lifespan. Follow material-specific care instructions and pay attention to storage conditions.
Drying Method: Gently press with a lint-free towel to absorb moisture. Avoid vigorous rubbing or wringing (TPE may deform; silicone may retain marks).
Material Care:
TPE Material: After complete drying, use a powder puff to apply specialized maintenance powder evenly over the entire body (focusing on joints, chest, and other areas prone to sticking) to prevent oil seepage and surface stickiness.
Silicone Material: No powdering required. Store directly after drying, avoiding contact with sharp objects (to prevent surface scratches).
Storage Conditions:
Environment: Place in a cool, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight (to prevent material aging and discoloration) and heat sources (e.g., radiators, AC vents).
Position: Store in a natural posture (e.g., standing or lying flat). Avoid prolonged joint bending (to prevent frame deformation). Place soft cloth padding at joints to reduce pressure.
Isolation: Wrap in a dedicated dust-proof bag. Avoid contact with dark-colored clothing (to prevent staining, especially for TPE materials).
五. Absolutely Prohibited Misuse
The following actions will directly damage the doll’s materials and must be avoided:
Prohibited use of harsh cleaning agents: Alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, bath scrubbers, scrubs, etc., will cause TPE/silicone surfaces to age and crack.
Prohibited high-temperature treatment: Hot water (>30°C), hairdryer heat, direct sunlight, etc., will deform TPE and melt silicone.
Avoid forceful handling: Vigorous scrubbing or squeezing during cleaning, or folding joints during storage, may cause material tears or internal skeleton fractures.
