i'm just worried i can't get them clean afterwards, or that anything i use might break down the silicone.
is dr bonner's safe and mild enough to use on any of the syn models?
(i think i may have destroyed my original helix syn with something else (not sure what) that i used to clean it. it never looks like new.)
suggestions?
Dr. Bronner's is some pretty intense stuff, I remember reading what you were supposed to do if you got it in your eyes. I would suggest some antibacterial hand soap, or toy cleaner.
I use ordinary hand soap and hand sanitizer spray afterwards - works like a charm. Toy cleaner is basically the same I guess (70% alcohol & 30% water), just with a higher price-tag. It's silicone safe and I had no problems so far.
Silicone toys are rather sturdy and can be boiled (also known as Dildo-Soup 🙂 ) or put in the dishwasher. I'm not sure about the plastic of the Aneros toys though, so I wouldn't recommend to boil them.
I use dawn anti-bacterial soap and a old toothbrush. Scrub with hot water and soap lather using the toothbrush. Then let them sit in the soapy water for about 10 mins. Rinse them off & dry. All done and ready for the next session.
I use Aneros Wipes right after a session. It’s anti-bacterial wipes. I also put my Aneros in UV light afterwards to get rid of all germs.
ok, thank you all for chiming in.
your suggestions helped BIG TIME. the toothbrush did amazing things: i didn't mess up my helix syn at all. i did, however, learn some very upsetting truths about where i live (like, i can't even spell this, but here goes: euw-uh-uh-uh-ugh. twitch twitch)
again, thank you.
