 1. Cleaning Made Simple

Keeping your toy clean is quick and gentle — no harsh chemicals needed.

These toys use water‑reactive materials, so gentle care is key.

• Rinse with warm water

• Use antibacterial toy cleaner

• Avoid strong cleaners or alcohol

• Make sure all hydration channels are fully rinsed

Regular PDX Toys

Made from TPE, they’re easy to clean but still need a soft touch.

• Wash with warm water and antibacterial toy cleaner

• Skip alcohol or abrasive cleaners

• Rinse thoroughly to protect the material

2. Drying: The Step You Don’t Want to Rush

Drying is the most important part of toy care — especially for Add Water products.

Hydro‑activated materials hold moisture longer.

• Air‑dry completely in a ventilated space

• Let internal channels dry fully before storing

• Never store while damp

TPE dries faster but still needs full airflow.

• Pat dry

• Air‑dry until no moisture remains

• Ensure internal areas are dry

3. Keep the Material Soft & Smooth

A little powder goes a long way.
