Proper care of erotic products can prolong the service life and ensure hygiene and safety, the following is a detailed care guide:
1. Cleaning methods
Mild detergent: Use neutral soap or special toy cleaner, avoid harsh products containing alcohol and bleach.
Water temperature control: Use lukewarm water (no more than 40℃) for cleaning, high temperature may cause deformation of silicone/TPE.
Waterproof and non-waterproof treatment:
Waterproof products: can be washed and wiped dry and dried thoroughly with a lint-free cloth or paper towel.
Non-waterproof products: Wipe the surface with a damp cloth to avoid liquid entering the interior and causing damage.
Sterilization Recommendation: Silicone/glass/metal materials can be wiped with 75% alcohol (avoiding electronic parts) or boiled (only for products that are heat resistant and have no electronic components) on a regular basis.
2. Storage Tips
Dry environment: Make sure it is completely dry before storing, humidity can easily breed bacteria or mold.
Avoid light and high temperature: Keep away from direct sunlight, heaters and other heat sources to prevent the material from aging and cracking.
Separate storage: Store different materials separately (e.g. silicone does not come into contact with TPE) to avoid chemical reactions.
Protection measures: use the original box or breathable cloth bag to prevent dust and scratching, battery products need to remove the battery for storage.
3. Use and Maintenance
Lubricant selection:
Silicone toys: water-based lubricant only (silicone-based will corrode the material).
Other materials: water-based or oil-based (note that oil-based may damage latex products).
Charging Maintenance: Use the original charger to avoid overcharging; keep the charging port dry to prevent short circuit.
Regular inspection: check whether the surface is broken, whether the battery is leaking, whether the electronic function is normal.
4. Special care for different materials
Silicone/TPE:
Can be boiled for 1-5 minutes to sterilize (no electronic parts).
TPE material has more pores and needs more frequent cleaning.
Metal/Glass: can be sterilized by alcohol wipe or boiling water, pay attention to drop prevention.
ABS plastic: avoid alcohol, just clean with soapy water.
5. Replacement and Disposal
Lifespan Tips: Replace it in time when there is discoloration, hardening, odor or abnormal function.
Environmentally friendly disposal: Dispose of it according to the classification of electronic waste or plastics, batteries need to be handled separately.
Precautions
Exclusive use: Avoid sharing and the risk of cross-infection.
Cleaning before and after use: especially after contact with body fluids need to be washed immediately.
Use in sensitive areas: suspend use when broken or allergic, and consult a doctor.
Through scientific care, erotic products not only last longer, but also protect the health and comfort of the user.
