TPE DOLL CARE 💧🔎💜

[NaughtyHarbor]

When caring for a TPE sex doll, it is important to follow a few guidelines
Maintenance of TPE dolls is key because TPE is a more porous material than silicone, which means it absorbs more moisture and is more prone to damage from improper care.

However, with regular and proper care, a TPE sex doll can be kept in immaculate condition for a long time, minimizing the risk of damaging it and enjoying its intimate services to the fullest.

►Monthly checks are recommended, but if you use it frequently, it is advisable to repeat the powdering process more frequently..
►Remove moisture. Excess moisture can penetrate the material and cause damage or mold.
►Prolonged storage of TPE products may cause oil to be released on their surface. This is a normal phenomenon caused by the presence of oil in the material composition. Oil stains can be easily removed by wiping the surface with a microfiber towel.
►Prolonged bending of the joints can lead to creases in the skin. To prevent permanent damage, it is advisable to keep the sex doll in the starting position in which it was delivered, which minimizes the load on the joints.
►Dressing dolls: When dressing the doll, use powder to prevent the fabric from sticking to the skin. Avoid over bending the limbs and handle clothing with care, sharp clothing features can damage the surface.
►Do not exceed the recommended range of limb movement to avoid damaging the material.
►Use water-based lubricants: easy to clean and compatible with TPE material.

How to store a TPE doll?

Avoid prolonged exposure of TPE doll to sunlight, moisture and dust.
Keep the doll in a dry and temperature stable environment.
Avoid direct contact with materials that can transfer color to TPE skin (clothing, sofa, colored blankets)

Basic cleaning of the TPE doll
Start by soaking a sponge or towel in lukewarm water and gently wipe the surface of the doll. Alternatively, rinse the surface with lukewarm water. When rinsing in the shower or bathtub, avoid wetting the head (we recommend removing the head to clean it separately).

When removing dirt or stains from the skin, use lukewarm soapy water and avoid strong friction. Do not use force when cleaning to avoid damaging the surface.

Avoid using aggressive cleaning agents. In case of stains, use a special stain remover for TPE material.

For cleaning or drying, prefer air drying or soft towel drying. Caution! Never use hair dryers when drying the doll, as the intense hot air can damage the TPE material.

Once the surface is completely dry, apply powder to the surface of the doll using a brush, this will help keep its skin soft and smooth.

What kind of powder is best? I tried wiping the doll because she got little balls of dirt and the micro fiber towel seemed to make it worse! But I haven’t tried a powder like I would like to make the skin less tacky

Good stuff.

I have found that showering the doll really works well. Just take care if you do that, if heavy. I use a normal new and clean sponge (not used for anything else except maybe me) to clean/wipe her down softly, never hard. Never used a microfibre cloth at all. A good wet soapy sponge and a ready bowl of lots of water will do the trick if shower too much hassle. When dry I sometimes use Johnson's baby powder, might be called something else where you are. I wear a mask when I use the powder cos it gets quite cloudy.

Use sponge cake and baby oil. Then shower and let it dry. Only then can you use powder.

It took me a couple tries to find this post through the search function but it is super helpful and I thought it might be worth a sticky and making it into an ongoing thread to help anyone new to the hobby learn the basics of care for their new companions.
I have read a couple of times that you are also supposed to oil your doll or TPE toys occasionally but I am having trouble hammering down exactly how often and what the benefits of different types of oil are. Right now I am expecting to get some food grade mineral oil for the job but I would appreciate any help or advice on the subject.

This is the last post I need to hit 5 which means it needs to be approved by a mod which also means it will be read by a mod so to the mod reading this:
Is this worth making a sticky out of? of so can you please take care of that? muchly thank ya either way!
