Like any other personal item, sex dolls may encounter issues over time, particularly with usage and maintenance. However, with proper care, many common problems can be easily fixed. Here are some common issues and how to address them:
- Tears and Cracks: Over time, the materials (typically TPE or silicone) may develop small tears or cracks. To fix this, use a repair kit specifically designed for sex dolls. These kits typically include glue or patches that allow you to seal small holes. Ensure the surface is clean and dry before applying the patch, and allow it to cure fully before using the doll again.
- Stiff Joints: Sometimes, the joints may become stiff or difficult to move. Regularly lubricate the joints with a silicone-based lubricant to prevent stiffness and maintain mobility. If the joints are still problematic, it may be necessary to disassemble the doll and address the issue with proper tools.
- Sticky or Tacky Skin: This can happen if the doll has been overexposed to moisture or not powdered after cleaning. To fix this, gently wash the doll with warm water and mild soap, dry it thoroughly, and then apply baby powder or cornstarch to keep the surface soft and non-sticky.
- Sinking or Fading of the Eyes or Makeup: If your doll’s makeup or eyes are starting to fade, use makeup specifically designed for dolls or a specialized paint to touch up these areas.
With proper care, most issues can be resolved, extending the lifespan of your doll and ensuring it remains in good condition.
