3 Common Problems With Your TPE Sex Dolls
As beginners of TPE sex dolls, we often encounter issues with TPE material due to our lack of understanding of its properties. There are 3 common problems as below: staining, cracking, and discoloration. Every novice might face these issues more or less, but not everyone knows how to address them. This blog will provide you with solutions and tips on how to prevent these problems from occurring on your new sex doll.
1. What If My Realistic TPE Sex Doll Gets Dirty?
Step 1: Clean with soapy water or a doll-specific cleaner.
Step 2: After washing, allow it to air dry naturally. Remember do not use a hairdryer.
Step 3: Apply baby powder to the surface and massage it in for an even distribution.
How to Avoid It?
To prevent your TPE sex doll from getting dirty, please avoid contact with dusty surfaces or objects during transportation and use. TPE material has many tiny, invisible pores, making it prone to collecting dust and difficult to clean. Regularly clean your doll with mild soap and water, ensuring it is thoroughly dried afterward to prevent mold growth. After cleaning, apply cornstarch or TPE-safe powder to absorb oils and reduce stickiness. Store your doll in a breathable cover in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight. Handle your doll with clean hands, avoid sharp objects, and use only water-based lubricants during use. Schedule regular deep cleanings 1~2 times a month, including disinfectant sprays, to maintain hygiene. These practices will keep your TPE sex doll clean, and hygienic, and extend its lifespan.
2. What If My Realistic TPE Sex Doll Gets Cracks?
The cracks refer to small surface cracks. If your realistic sex doll develops very large cracks, it's best to seek professional help from the store where you purchased the doll to avoid further damage from improper handling. For smaller cracks, you can repair them using the following steps:
Step 1: Clean the damaged surface of the TPE doll and let it air dry.
Step 2: Apply TPE adhesive to the cracks.
Step 3: Let it sit for at least 30 minutes to dry.
How to Avoid Cracks?
When posing your sex doll, please avoid using excessive force. Most modern TPE sex dolls have articulated joints, therefore applying too much pressure can damage the internal skeleton and cause the external TPE material to tear or crack. Avoid bumping your sex doll into sharp objects or rough surfaces. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause the TPE material to age and crack, so it will be better to store your sex doll in a cool, shaded place.
3. What If My Realistic TPE Sex Doll Gets Dyed?
Staining is a common issue for beginners with sex dolls. When you find your precious sex doll has stains, the first instinct is often to wipe it with water. However, this usually doesn't work. So, how can you remove these annoying stains? Follow these steps:
Step 1: Clean with body wash or a special stain remover; avoid using alcohol as it can damage the surface coating.
Step 2: Depending on the size and severity of the stain, use a cotton swab to apply a small amount of stain remover evenly to the stained area.
Step 3: Repeat Step 2 every 4 hours until the stain is completely removed.
Generally, small stains will fade within 24 hours, while severe stains may take 3-4 days to remove.
Remember, stain removers can only reduce the stain's intensity to varying degrees. They can lighten the color but may not completely eliminate it.
How To Avoid Dyeing?
To prevent your TPE sex doll from getting stained, please choose light-colored, high-quality clothing. If you prefer dark-colored clothes, make sure to buy them from reputable stores and ask if the clothes are prone to staining. Always wash new clothes before dressing your sex doll. If you're unsure whether the clothes will bleed, you can test them on the doll's feet first. Additionally, avoid placing the doll on easily dyeable sheets and fabrics, and ensure the bedding or underlying materials are clean. When applying makeup to your doll, be careful not to spill cosmetics that could stain the body.
Final Words
These are the three most common problems faced by sex doll beginners and their corresponding solutions. Keeping your TPE sex doll clean requires regular maintenance and proper care. By choosing appropriate clothing, storing the doll correctly, handling it with care, and performing regular deep cleaning, you can prevent your TPE sex doll from getting dirty, cracking, and staining. Taking these preventative measures will help maintain the longevity of your TPE sex doll, and ensure that you can enjoy its use for a long time.
