Oros Silicone Toy Care: Soft vs Near Clear

Quick Answer

Clean your Oros toy with mild soap and warm water or a dedicated toy cleaner before and after each use. Soft silicone needs gentle handling to avoid tearing, while Near Clear 31* silicone is more durable but can attract lint—store it separately.

Step-by-Step Oros Care Routine

1. 1. Rinse Immediately After Use: Run warm water over the toy to remove surface debris. For Soft silicone, use a gentle stream—high pressure can cause micro-tears. For Near Clear, a quick rinse is sufficient. Never use boiling water or a dishwasher; high heat can degrade silicone.
2. 2. Wash with Mild Soap or Toy Cleaner: Apply a small amount of fragrance-free, antibacterial soap or a silicone-safe toy cleaner. Use your fingers or a soft cloth to lather the entire surface. For Soft Oros, avoid abrasive sponges. For Near Clear, pay extra attention to textured areas where residue can hide. Avoid soaps with moisturizers, oils, or silicones—they can leave a film that attracts bacteria.
3. 3. Rinse Thoroughly and Pat Dry: Rinse under warm water until all soap is gone. Pat dry with a lint-free cloth or air-dry on a clean towel. Near Clear silicone shows lint easily, so a microfiber cloth works best. Soft silicone can collect dust if left wet—ensure it's fully dry before storage. Do not use paper towels; fibers can stick to the silicone.
4. 4. Store in a Cool, Dry Place: Place your Oros toy in a breathable cotton bag or its original packaging. Keep it away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and other toys made of different materials (like TPE or jelly) to avoid chemical reactions. Soft silicone should not be pressed under heavy objects, as it can deform over time. Store Near Clear toys separately to prevent lint transfer from fabric pouches.

Product-Specific Care Notes

• Medium Oros -- Near Clear 31* silicone -- OF-O-249: Medium Oros in Near Clear 31* silicone has a total length of 6.5 inches and a widest shaft diameter of 2.2 inches. Its firmer, smoother surface is easier to wipe clean but may show lint or dust after storage—rinse before use.

  

• Small Oros MISHAP -- Soft silicone -- OF-O-266: Small Oros MISHAP in Soft (0030) silicone has a visible pigment freckle on the shaft that is purely aesthetic and not at risk of coming out. Soft silicone is more delicate; avoid scrubbing the freckle area aggressively to prevent surface wear.
