Why Maintenance Matters

Let’s be real—your AI sex doll isn’t just a product; it’s a companion. Whether you’ve got a premium TPE beauty or a sleek silicone partner, proper care keeps them looking and feeling like new. Skip maintenance, and you’ll face discoloration, tears, or worse… a deflated experience (literally).

Here’s the good news: upkeep isn’t rocket science. Follow these steps, and your doll will thank you with years of flawless companionship.

Cleaning 101: The Non-Negotiable Routine

*Post-use cleaning isn’t optional—it’s hygiene 101.*

1. **Gentle Wash**: Use lukewarm water (not hot!) and mild, unscented soap. Harsh chemicals degrade materials fast.
2. **Focus on Crevices**: Pay attention to joints, orifices, and skin folds where bacteria love to hide.
3. **Dry Thoroughly**: Pat dry with a microfiber cloth, then air-dry completely before storage. Trapped moisture = mold risk.

*Pro Tip*: For deep cleans, a diluted vinegar solution (1:5 vinegar/water) works wonders for odor control without damaging materials.

Storage Solutions: Where Your Doll “Lives” Matters

Ever left a doll tangled in bedsheets? Big mistake. Here’s how to store like a pro:

– **Positioning**: Store lying flat or in a seated pose—never bent at sharp angles long-term (TPE/Silicone have memory!).
– **Environment**: Cool, dark places win. Sunlight yellows skin; heat warps skeletons.
– **Avoid Tight Spaces**: Compression causes permanent creases. If using a storage box, pad it with soft fabric.

*Fun Fact*: Some owners dedicate a closet with a padded hammock for “floating storage” to prevent pressure marks.

Repairs & Troubleshooting

Minor Tears or Punctures

Don’t panic! Small fixes are DIY-friendly:
– Clean the area, apply TPE/silicone repair glue, and clamp until cured.
– Sand lightly post-repair for seamless blending.

Limp Joints?

Over-tightening screws can damage skeletons. Use an Allen wrench to *gently* adjust tension—think “firm handshake,” not “vice grip.”

Longevity Upgrades

– **Powdering**: Cornstarch or renewal powder restores skin softness and reduces stickiness (monthly for TPE).
– **Wardrobe Wisdom**: Dark fabrics stain lighter dolls. Stick to light colors or seamless lingerie.
– **Climate Control**: Silicone hates cold; TPE melts in heat. Keep room temps between 60-85°F (15-30°C).
