Read the cardCleaning a sex toy is soap, water, and a polymer you can name. That is the how-to.
Most first-clean mistakes are the same. Dish soap on jelly. A spray in a charge port. Bagging it wet. Thinking a cleaner can save mystery TPE. This page is the lecture. The ranked shelf under it is the bottles I would actually keep at the sink.
If you already know the bottle, skip ahead. Best sex toy cleaners is the finished ranking. What to throw out: Body-safe materials. Then bag it: How to store sex toys. First cart: How to buy your first sex toy. The bottle for the night: How to use lube.
Before you buy
How to choose
Name the polymer first
Platinum silicone, steel, glass: soap and water. A motor: wipe, don't drown the port. Porous junk: trash. A cleaner is not a miracle.
Soap still counts
Mild soap on silicone. Shine if you want a named spray. Refresh if you wanted foam. Don't skip the rinse.
Sleeves are a different sink
TPE wants water, FleshWash, and air. Don't treat a sleeve like a wand.
Dry, then bag
A damp toy in a zipper is how drawers smell. How to store sex toys is the bag lecture.

The usual mistakes
Don't wash jelly and keep it
Porous toys hold onto lube. That is the avoid row. Buy silicone. Then buy Shine.
Don't spray the charger
Unplug it. Keep foam out of the seam. Charge dry.
Don't skip the bottle on night one
Water-based in the same cart as the toy. How to use lube. Then this sink.
