Caring for a sex doll involves routine maintenance that benefits from sensible safety practices. Start with a clean, well-lit workspace and access to basic protective gear. Gloves made of nitrile or latex help keep skin clean when handling cleaning solutions, lubricants, or adhesives, and they reduce the risk of skin irritation. Eye protection is prudent when using solvents, strong cleaners, or sharp tools for minor repairs, especially if you are trimming seams or applying adhesives.
Choose gentler cleaning agents to protect the doll’s surface. Mild, non-abrasive soaps or specialized doll-cleaning solutions are preferable to harsher household cleaners. Avoid acetone, bleach, and abrasive scrubbers that can degrade silicone or elastomer skins over time. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry with a soft, lint-free cloth. For internal components, such as joints or wiring in more advanced models, follow manufacturer guidelines or consult a professional; improper handling can damage mechanisms or void warranties.
Storage matters too. Keep the doll in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight, which can cause discoloration and material fatigue. Use a stand or padding to maintain shape and prevent pressure marks. If you perform repairs or adjustments, work slowly and document each step in case future maintenance is needed. By combining protective gear with careful handling and proper cleaning routines, doll care becomes safer and more sustainable.
