1. Long-Term Storage Frequency for Silicone Dolls
- If unused for over 15 days, perform full-body maintenance every two weeks to prevent material degradation.
2. Safe Cleaning Methods to Prevent Doll Damage
- Light Cleaning:
- Gently apply baby powder to absorb oils and dust.
- Stain Removal:
- Use mild cleansers (e.g., neutral soap, shampoo, or dedicated cleaner) diluted with water.
- Never scrub harshly to avoid tears or color loss.
- Post-Cleaning:
- Rinse with water and pat dry with a soft cloth.
- Air-dry completely in shade (avoid sunlight).
- Apply baby powder/talcum powder (wear a dust mask).
3. Waterproof Protection for Internal Joints
- Avoid water contact. If exposure occurs (e.g., during photoshoots), ensure full drying before storage to prevent joint rust.
- Pre-Storage Protection:
- Cover the doll’s face with a mask to protect makeup from friction.
4. Packaging Solutions for Long-Term Preservation
- Environment: Cool, dry place away from heat/sunlight.
- Pose: Keep joints straight to avoid silicone deformation.
- Packaging: Wrap in original dust-free cloth, place in a rigid box with desiccants.
⚠️ Critical Do's and Don'ts in Doll Maintenance:
- Avoid alcohol, solvents, dark fabrics, and oily pigments.
- Inspect every two weeks during storage.
