    How to help reduce staining from clothes?

    in General Discussions

    Idk if I asked this question or not yet, but I’m planning on buying my girl some clothes from Goodwill after I order her. I get paid this Friday, so I plan on ordering her next week on Monday after the final bit of money moves to my PayPal. I’ve been excited and nervous this whole week, but I’m wondering about clothes and staining, since it’s common for TPE. I’ve read on Reddit that you can reduce staining by washing the clothes a few times, but I also heard that letting the clothes soak in a mixture of distilled, white vinegar and water before washing helps, too. Which one is better? I wash any clothes that I get from the Goodwill regardless, but I’m wondering what method is best to help reduce stains.

    @ArtiSan09 I am sure you‘ve been doing plenty of reading up, on this Forum, and probably others, too…since you already know TPE does stain , fairly easily. As a General Rule, avoid Dark Colored Clothing…

    That’s why you mostly see Pictures of TPE Ladies, in light or white colored attire. One particular item, to avoid, is Black, or dark colored Lace. I’ve had Black Lace stain one of my Ladies, in less than 10 minutes, just wearing something, for a Photo Shoot. (And this was after the Lace Item had been already washed in hot Water and dried…)

    I always wash new Items of Clothing, in Hot Water…sometimes a few times…

    I have found hot washed Denim, especially older stone washed Denim, doesn’t stain TPE, even worn for a few weeks. Some Satin seems to be okay, too. I have a few Kimonos and Robes, that do not stain TPE, and they have dark colors in them…but, a Black Satin Kimono stained my Lady, after 2 Days… Chiffon seems to be good, too….

    I can truly say, it’s usually a Crap Shoot, with Colored Clothing and TPE Stains. Most of us keep our Ladies wrapped in their Fleece Blankets, Naked, most of the time, with ankle socks on their feet, to protect their Soles and Toes. I dress mine for Photo Shoots, then take the Clothes off them…

    There are some little “tricks” you can use…like dressing your Girl in a white Body Suit, under her Costume or Clothing, to allow it to be worn for longer periods of time…plus some others, you‘ll find, over time…


    But, know this… Even if you do stain your Girl…it’s not the end of the World….irritating, for sure…but fixable. And, not expensive, either…

    You just need to pick up some of this Generic Acne Cream, with 10% Benzoyl Peroxide (about $5.00, at Walmart).


    Slather it all over the stained area, and leave it on, overnight. The Stain is usually gone, the next Day. A deep Stain, may require a couple of “Treatments,” but, it’s still fixable. And, nearly all Stains will fade away, on their own, anyway, from TPE…it just takes time…

    Thanks for the advice! Yeah, I’ve been told to avoid black or dark clothing, or even clothing that’s loud in color, like a bright red or hot pink. I’ll keep this in mind when shopping for clothes, and I’ll be sure to pick up some of the cream as well. I was also thinking of putting white socks on my girl’s feet to help protect them, especially since my living room has a huge carpet rug in the middle of it. Would white socks be okay for TPE? I’m assuming anything white would be preferable but I just wanna double check. 😅

    @ArtiSan09 You’re welcome. Yes, White Socks work great at protecting your Girl’s Feet. I like the Anklets, like in the Picture, below…easy to put on, or take off…

    I buy the Girls sized ones, at Walmart…about $3.00 for 3 Pair…

    @ArtiSan09 that is some very good advise @rk105rider just shared, as a personal experience I would like to add that I try to always wash the clothing items first, if they are bright or dark colors I usually wash them a couple of times if not multiple times and let them soak in warm water once also, I always use more than plenty of detergent, so far I have had good results but it is almost inevitable to sometimes possibly have some very minor stains, prevention is the best option but if needed there are maintenance options.
