How to Clean Fleshy Synflex

Synflex, one of the popular prostate massagers out there, hits that P-spot just right. But once the fun’s over, it’s time for a bit of aftercare. So, the question is: How to clean Fleshy Synflex?

Made from silicone and waterproof, cleaning this sex toy is super easy. It just takes a few minutes to ensure it stays fresh, safe, and ready for the next round.

Let’s walk you through exactly how to care for your handheld prostate massager.

Why Cleaning Synflex is Non-Negotiable

Your Synflex isn’t just an impulse buy; it’s an investment in pleasure that deserves a little maintenance.

Regular cleaning preserves the silky texture and smooth surface of high-quality silicone. It also prevents material breakdown, so you get more mileage and pleasure.

But cleaning isn’t just about keeping it looking fresh. It’s about keeping you fresh, too. Below are a few reasons you must clean your toy:

Prevents bacterial infections:

Anal play can introduce bacteria such as E. coli onto the toy’s surface. Without cleaning, that bacteria can linger and cause infections.

Reduces risk of yeast infections:

Residue from lube, sweat, or bodily fluids can throw off your body’s natural balance, leading to itching, irritation, or a yeast infection. A quick clean keeps things balanced down there.

Helps avoid STI transmission:

Even with the best intentions, sharing toys can transfer fluids and infections. Cleaning thoroughly adds an essential safety layer.

Stops mold or mildew growth:

Residual fluids on your anal device can lead to mold, or mildew. Keep your toy dry and clean to avoid gross buildup, and potential health risks.

Eliminates lingering odors:

Silicone can hold onto smells if not cleaned properly. A good scrub keeps Synflex fresh and ready for your next adventure.

Materials Needed

The good news? Cleaning your Synflex is simple. You won’t need a lab’s worth of chemicals, just a few everyday items and a little know-how.

Here’s what you’ll want handy:

• Warm water, your best friend in the cleaning game
• Fleshy Fresh, our very own sex toy cleaner
• A soft toothbrush (optional), for deep cleaning of hard-to-reach areas

If you don’t have a toy cleaner, a mild, unscented antibacterial hand soap or baby shampoo works in a pinch. Just skip anything with strong fragrances, dyes, or exfoliants.

Also, keep the following warnings in mind:

• No harsh soaps or cleaning agents: Bleach, ammonia, vinegar, hydrogen peroxide, alcohol, you name it. These can damage the silicone, create micro-tears, and leave behind irritating residues.
• No spraying water near the DC port: Moisture in there can cause corrosion or short-circuiting, and could void your warranty. Don’t rinse directly over it. Instead, use a damp cloth or gently block the area when rinsing.
• No boiling or full submersion: Even though Synflex is waterproof, the DC charging port isn’t built for a bath.

How to Clean Fleshy Synflex

Below are the steps to keep your pleasure device clean and perfect.

1. Clean the Remote (if required)

• The remote control is not waterproof, so keep it away from water or toy cleaners.
• Wipe it gently with a dry, plain cloth or towel to remove dust, sweat, or lube residue.

2. Switch Off Synflex

• Press and hold the power button for 3 seconds to turn the device off.
• Disconnect it from any power source and remove the charging cable.

3. Rinse with Warm Water

• Take Synflex to the bathroom or kitchen sink.
• Rinse the silicone surface with warm water to remove bodily fluids, lube, or surface grime.
• Avoid spraying water directly at the DC charging port.

4. Apply Toy Cleaner

• Rub your chosen toy cleaner or mild soap across the entire surface.
• Focus on the ridges, curves, and grooves where buildup could hide.
• Gently scrub around ridges with your fingers or a soft toothbrush for a deeper clean.

5. Rinse with Warm Water, Again

• Rinse away all cleaner or soap until the toy feels slick-free and residue-free.
• Rinse as many times as necessary, staying mindful about the charging port.

6. Dry Synflex

• Pat dry with a soft, clean towel or let it air dry completely before storage.
• Store in a cool, moisture-free place, preferably in its original box or a breathable storage pouch. Keep it away from other silicone toys to avoid material reactions.
• Dry the charging port completely before you plug it in to avoid rust or electrical damage.

Maintenance Best Practices

Your toy deserves more than just a quick rinse. A little TLC goes a long way in keeping Synflex silky, safe, and ready for action. Here’s how to keep it in top shape:

Use the right lube:

Stick with Fleshy Glide or silicone-safe lubricants only. Oil-based lubes can degrade silicone over time. Remember, you paid for premium smoothness, so don’t ruin it.

Try a condom for easy cleanups:

Put on a condom during use to cut cleaning time in half and reduce direct contact with bodily fluids. Just toss it after use, wipe down the toy, and you’re done.

Inspect your toy:

Run your fingers over the surface regularly to check for any changes, like rips, sticky patches, or odd smells. Also, keep an eye on the DC charging port for any buildup or looseness.

Know when to let go:

Silicone lasts a long time, but not forever. If you notice any rips, strong odors, or changes in texture, it’s time to say goodbye. Those are signs of bacterial buildup or material breakdown.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

My toy smells even after cleaning.

Silicone can trap odors, especially if not fully dried or stored with other toys.

Fix:

• Wash the toy in and out with lukewarm water and mild soap, then let it air dry.
• For stubborn smells, soak in water with a few drops of dish soap for ten minutes.
• Avoid storing near jelly or TPE toys to avoid odor transfer.

The surface feels sticky or tacky.

Lube or soap residue buildup can be the culprit.

Fix:

• Clean with a silicone-safe toy cleaner or diluted vinegar solution (1:10).
• Rinse well and dry.
• Avoid oil-based lubes.

My massager has changed color or developed white spots.

It’s the “Bloom” from exposure to harsh cleaners or oils.

Fix:

• Wash with mild soap and water.
• If needed, rub on a small amount of 100% silicone lube, then wipe off.

Water got into the DC port.

Stay calm.

Fix:

• Power off immediately.
• Dry the port gently with a soft cloth or cotton swab.
• Let air dry for 24 – 48 hours before attempting to charge or use it.

If the toy malfunctions after this, or isn’t charging anymore, contact customer support for assistance.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I clean Synflex?

Clean your Synflex after every use to keep it hygienic and in top shape. A quick rinse with warm water and a toy cleaner does wonders. Regular cleaning prevents buildup, bad smells, and bacteria, so you and your toy stay fresh.

If you’re going for round two (or three) without a break, a quick mid-session wipe-down keeps things clean and safe without slowing the mood.

Where should I wash Synflex?

You can wash your Synflex just about anywhere — sink, shower, or even the kitchen sink (no judgment). Just avoid submerging the DC charging port and never use high-pressure water near it.

Can I clean Synflex in a dishwasher?

No, never clean Fleshy Synflex in a dishwasher. Even though it’s waterproof, the intense heat, harsh detergents, and high-pressure jets can damage the silicone and internal electronics. Dishwashers are way too rough for a toy this smooth.

Clean Fleshy Synflex Regularly

Regular maintenance extends Synflex’s lifespan, keeps the surface smooth, and prevents common issues like odor and stickiness.

Use mild cleaning agents, rinse thoroughly with water, and dry the device before storage.

Be careful of electronic parts and the charging port, keeping moisture away and avoiding submerging in water.
