🌸 How to Prevent Stains on TPE – Complete Guide

TPE, the captivatingly textured material used for torso dolls, has a small weakness: it loves to absorb pigments. What if we stopped it from getting into mischief? 💋
Discover all my secrets for keeping it neat, clean, and deliciously sexy, even when dressed in black.


💧 Why does TPE stain?

TPE naturally contains oil to maintain its realistic flexibility .
When a tight garment is pressed against it, the pressure pushes this oil to the surface. And if the fabric is dark? The pigments are released, seep through... and stain.
A dangerous little game between textiles and skin… 😈


🎨 Risky colors

🔻 To watch very closely :

  • Black

  • Dark red

  • Navy blue

  • Deep purple

🔸 Aggravating factors :

  • Tight-fitting clothing

  • Prolonged contact

  • Synthetic material

  • Not washed properly

💡 Some stains are superficial... a good wash may be enough. And if not, consider the stain remover available from Tantaly, in the Accessories section.


🛡️ How to protect your TPE doll?

1️⃣ Take a test first

Test on a small piece of TPE (or insert): place the fabric on for 24 hours, apply pressure.
No transfer = you can go!

2️⃣ Powder, my love

Talc absorbs oil, creates a barrier against pigments.
Plus, it makes your skin feel as soft as a fantasy… 💞

3️⃣ Wash like a pro

Here is the textile purification ritual :

🧼 Step 1 : Hand wash at 30°C with mild detergent + white vinegar
🧼 Step 2 : Start again at 40°C
🔍 Pressure test :

  • 5 kg for 24 hours

  • then 30 kg for 24 hours
    ✅ No transfer = garment validated


🔥 Sensitive areas to monitor

💥 Shoulders → Tight Tops
💥 Chest → Bras and tight bodysuits
💥 Hips & Belly → Shorts, fitted panties
💥 Buttocks → Sitting position + tight pants = danger!


Recap of the washing protocol

🧺 Wash at 30°C with white vinegar
🧺 Second wash at 40°C
📏 Test 5 kg → then 30 kg for 24 hours
💎 If no stain = sexy green light 🔥
