Latex care instructions are available upon request. We
also send latex care instructions and warnings in each order we fill. If
you have questions about care of your latex items please refer to those documents
or contact us.
- All Latex CLOTHING & TOYS are
talced for shipment and storage, to protect the latex.
- Make sure your
item fits before washing. A small amount of Talc and glue may be present
in the seams of the garment after washing. This is normal and can be removed
with a good silicone shiner and vigorous rubbing with the finger tips.
- Wash your garment:
use lukewarm water and soap(1 drop of mild soap) to wash, then rinse thoroughly!
Hang to dry, then turn inside out when dry and repeat. Generally soap washing
need be done only once. Rinsing should be done each time you wear your garment.
- Transparent
Latex will have white spots or streaks after washing and most will disappear
when completely dry. Your garment may need to hang dry for several hours
or up to a full day to dry thoroughly. If any streaks remain a good silicone
polish will make them disappear.
- ALWAYS Store your
toy or garment out of sunlight, preferably in the dark, NEVER on a metal
hanger. Heat or cold may damage latex, and UV light will cause it to oxidize.
- BEFORE attempting
to put the garment on, be sure that your body and the inside of the garment
is heavily talced or lubed. Slide it on gently, taking care that fingernails,
rings, etc., do not snag the material. Pulling hard with your fingertips
will leave permanent dimples or tear the garment.
- MAKE IT SHINE
by applying a "medical grade" silicone lube or Black Beauty, Cult, Wet, EROS,
Vivishine.
- NEVER use OIL-based
lubes: they will do permanent damage! ONLY use silicone-based or water-based
lubricants. Never ever use Baby Oil, ever.
- KEEP latex garments
away from ANY oil-based products; body lotions or oils, hair gel, body glitter,
makeup, hairspray, perfume; nicotine, metal including pennies will stain
the latex; sharp objects will do permanent damage to your garment.
- Human Skin has
oils and salts that can break down latex if not removed promptly. Wash after
every wearing.
