What is a Sex Toy Cleaner?
A sex toy cleaner is a body-safe cleaning spray or wipe made specifically for cleaning sex toys. It’s designed to remove lubricant, residue, and surface germs more gently than harsh household cleaners, and it’s especially useful for quick cleanups or toys that are splashproof/non-submersible.
At Source Adult Toys, you can shop a curated range of sex toy cleaners, wipes, and storage essentials designed to help you keep toys hygienic, extend product lifespan, and maintain a simple, consistent toy-care routine—plus discreet shipping for privacy from checkout to delivery.

Why Sex Toy Cleaners Matter for Hygiene & Longevity
A dedicated sex toy cleaner isn’t just a nice extra—it’s an important part of personal hygiene and toy maintenance. When you use sex toys, bodily fluids, lube, and natural secretions can leave behind bacteria, fungi, and germs on the surface. Over time, that residue can:
- Affect the cleanliness and feel of the toy
- Shorten the toy’s longevity by breaking down materials
- Increase the risk of bacterial infections, yeast infection, UTIs (urinary tract infections) or irritation, especially when toys are used around delicate mucous membranes
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) like chlamydia are primarily a medical issue, not something you can “fix” with soap and water alone. But good cleaning habits—especially for shared toys—can help reduce the overall bacterial load and support safer play, along with condoms and mutual consent.

Types of Sex Toy Cleaners: Sprays, Foams, Wipes & More
Sex Toy Cleaning Spray
The most popular format is a sex toy cleaning spray in a compact bottle with a simple spray nozzle. These multipurpose cleaning sprays are designed to:
- Mist evenly over silicone, glass, ABS plastic, and stainless steel
- Help lift lube, water-based products, and bodily fluids from non-porous materials
- Support quick, hygienic cleanup between uses
Many modern formulas are marketed as antibacterial sex toy cleaners or pH-neutral antibacterial cleaners. Look for features like fragrance-free, paraben-free, vegan-friendly, or unscented if you have sensitive skin or prefer a minimal ingredient list.
Foams, Wipes, UV Sanitizers
Beyond sprays, you’ll also find:
- Foaming toy cleaners: Pump bottles that turn liquid into foam, making it easier to see where the product has been applied.
- Toy wipes: Handy for travel and quick cleanups, though we still recommend a more thorough wash at home.
- UV sanitizers & UV light devices: Some people like UV sanitizers for additional peace of mind on non-porous toys. Always follow the manufacturer’s cleaning instructions if you pair UV light with sprays or soap and water.
Travel-Size Toy Cleaners & Discreet Bottles
If you travel a lot, consider a smaller spray bottle that fits in a toiletry bag. Many toy cleaners come in travel sizes with simple labels that won’t scream “sex toys” on a hotel counter. Combined with discreet packaging on your order, this makes it easier to maintain hygiene wherever you go.

How to Clean Sex Toys Safely
Every toy and brand is a little different, so always start by checking the cleaning instructions on the product page or packaging. That said, a basic routine usually looks like this for non-porous materials (silicone, glass, stainless steel, many hard plastic toys):
General Cleaning with Mild Soap and Water
- Unplug & remove batteries: If your toy has batteries or electrical components, remove them before cleaning and make sure any charging port is closed.
- Rinse with lukewarm water: Hold the toy under lukewarm water, avoiding the charging area if the toy is only splash-proof, not fully waterproof.
- Apply mild soap or toy cleaner: Use a gentle, unscented mild soap or a sex toy cleaning spray designed for intimate use. Avoid harsh dish soap or multi-purpose cleaners.
- Gently scrub: With clean hands or a soft cloth, work the cleaner over the surface, paying attention to ridges or textured areas on vibrators or dildos.
- Rinse thoroughly: Rinse away all soap and cleaner with clean water, ensuring no residue remains.
- Air-dry: Let the toy air-dry completely—preferably on a clean towel—before storing it in a fabric bag, box, or drawer.
For many silicone, glass, and stainless steel toys, this soap and water approach, plus a dedicated cleaner, is enough for everyday maintenance.
Shared Toys, Condoms & Hygiene
When you’re using shared toys, consider pairing proper cleaning with condoms—especially if you’re switching between partners or body areas (for example, from anal to vaginal use). Condoms can help reduce the risk of transferring fluids, bacteria, and germs between mucous membranes, while toy cleaners and mild soap focus on surface cleanliness and material care.
Sex Toy Cleaning by Material – Silicone, Glass, Plastic, Rubber & More
Different materials respond differently to cleaning, heat, and lubricant ingredients. Understanding the basics helps you keep your sex toys in good shape for longer.
Non-Porous Materials: Silicone, Glass, Stainless Steel & ABS Plastic
Non-porous materials—like high-quality silicone, borosilicate glass, stainless steel, and many forms of ABS plastic or hard plastic—don’t absorb fluids the way some jelly toys do. That makes bacteria removal and material preservation easier.
- Silicone: Use toy cleaner or mild soap and water. Some non-vibrating silicone toys can be boiled briefly in boiling water to help with extra hygiene, but only if the brand specifically allows it.
- Glass & metal: Borosilicate glass and stainless steel dildos are typically very easy to clean. Many can handle hotter water, but be mindful of temperature changes and avoid knocking them against hard surfaces.
- ABS plastic / hard plastic vibrators: Treat gently. Clean with toy cleaner and lukewarm water without immersing battery compartments or USB charging ports. Never put toys with electrical components in boiling water or a dishwasher.
Some guides mention dishwasher cleaning for certain non-motorized toys, but we generally prefer lukewarm water, mild soap, and toy cleaner to avoid unexpected heat or detergent damage.
Porous Sex Toys: Jelly, CyberSkin & Latex Toys
Porous materials like jelly toys, toys made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC), CyberSkin, or some latex toys can hold onto microscopic moisture and residue more easily. That makes them trickier to fully sanitize:
- Clean thoroughly with a toy cleaner and mild soap.
- Consider using condoms over porous sex toys, especially if toys are shared.
- For some realistic toys (like sleeves), restorative powder helps keep the surface soft after cleaning and drying.
Porous toys require extra care, and at some point, replacing them is better than trying to make an old toy perfectly hygienic again.
Waterproof vs Non-Waterproof Toys
Always check whether your toy is waterproof, splash-proof, or “do not submerge.” Waterproof toys can usually handle more water exposure, while non-waterproof toys may only tolerate careful wiping and surface cleaning. Proper handling of batteries, USB ports, and electrical components protects both your safety and your toy’s lifespan.

Adult Toy Cleaner FAQs
Do I really need a sex toy cleaner if I already use soap and water?
For many non-porous toys, mild soap and water are a strong start. But a dedicated adult toy cleaner is formulated for intimate use, materials like silicone and glass, and the kind of bacteria that can collect on sex toys. Using both—cleaning with soap, then misting with a toy cleaning spray—can help support hygiene, material safety, and overall cleanliness, especially if you use toys frequently.
Can a sex toy cleaner prevent STIs or infections?
No cleaner can guarantee you won’t get STIs, UTIs, or other infections. Proper cleaning can help reduce bacteria, fungi, and germs on the surface of non-porous toys, but you still need safer-sex tools like condoms, regular testing, and medical advice. Toy cleaners are a supplement to good hygiene, not a medical treatment.
How should I store toys after cleaning?
After cleaning and drying, store toys in a clean, dry place—ideally in their own fabric bag or box. This helps protect surfaces from dust, lint, and friction with other toys. Keeping storage and cleaning consistent is one of the easiest ways to support a hygienic routine and extend the life of your toys.
