Are they ok to use with TPE or platinum silicone dolls? Will the bands damage the skin?

I've had silicone bands stain a mannequin, so on my TPE gal I turn the stockings inside out so the bands are on the outside. I then fold the top down so the bands are on top of the stockings and not directly touching the doll. No issues so far, but my doll doesn't wear them for more than a day or two.

My doll wears nylons 24/7, and with silicone top stockings, I have never had an issue..
But I don't leave her in black which can stain....suntan, nude, and beige have all been fine so far though.

I’ve had my TPE doll wear stockings with silicone bands on top and if I left them on for a while they left marks on the thighs of the doll. TPE looked kind of shiny in those areas. I also had the doll wear a bikini top with small silicone bands on top and bottom and after perhaps an hour they left permanent depressions/damage in the TPE. So for TPEI wouldnot recommend this typw of clothing.

Hi Andy,
Sorry to hear of the marked damage to your doll!
Mine is of silicone and, as you might guess from my handle, is in hose and sometimes the silicone-topped stockings literally 24/7 from the time she arrived, and to this day has not a mark to show for it.
Have you tried contacting the store/manufacturer to ask how you might be able to remove the marks?

Hi, personally I would recommend stockings like these:

Cindy 15 denier sheer stockings https://amzn.eu/d/0e9czbK

They are the traditional type usually worn with a suspender belt although will stay up without one. Most of my tpe gals wear these in black permanently without any issues whatsoever.
