Glass Dildo Care: Clean and Store Safely

Quick Answer

Clean your glass dildo with mild soap and warm water before and after each use, then store it in a padded pouch or separate compartment to prevent chips or cracks.

How to Clean and Store Your Glass Dildo

1. Wash Before First Use: Wash your new glass dildo with warm water and mild, unscented soap. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a lint-free cloth. This removes any manufacturing residue. Do not use boiling water for the first wash; it can cause thermal shock if the glass is cold.
2. Clean After Every Use: After use, wash the toy with warm water and antibacterial soap or a dedicated toy cleaner. Pay extra attention to textured areas or ridges where lubricant can collect. Avoid abrasive scrubbers that could scratch the glass surface.
3. Sanitize Periodically: To sanitize, you can boil the glass dildo in water for 3-5 minutes, wipe it with a 10% bleach solution (rinse thoroughly afterward), or run it through the dishwasher on a hot cycle without detergent. Never put a cold glass toy directly into boiling water; let it come to room temperature first to prevent cracking.
4. Dry Completely: Dry the dildo with a clean, soft cloth or let it air dry on a clean towel. Ensure no moisture remains before storing. Moisture trapped in storage can promote bacterial growth.
5. Store Separately: Store your glass dildo in a padded pouch, a dedicated toy box, or a compartment lined with soft fabric. Keep it away from metal or hard plastic toys that could scratch it. Never store glass toys loose in a drawer with other items; they can knock together and chip.
6. Inspect Before Each Use: Before using, hold the dildo up to light and run your fingers over the surface to check for any chips, cracks, or rough spots. If you find damage, replace the toy immediately. Even a tiny chip can cause discomfort or injury.
