The only thing worse than a broken dildo is a half-cured one – patience may be a virtue, but in this case, it’s also a necessity.

Determining the Curing Time

The Time Required for Curing

Curing time is an essential aspect of the dildo-making process. Its duration directly determines the finished product’s quality, firmness, and texture. The production’s success lies in determining the curing time accurately.

To determine the curing time, follow these five steps:

Record the date and time you pour the silicone into the mold.
Allow time to pass until you can peel the silicone freely from around the dildo base.
Check for tackiness on either side of the dildo by carefully pulling it from both sides and seeing if any silicone sticks to your fingers.
Once there is no tackiness that causes silicone to stick to your hands or gloves, and it has reached a pliable-but-hard consistency, proceed.
Unmold, trim off extra flashing or stalactites on bottom edges (where material naturally overflows upwards out of crevices), and flip over.

It is crucial to remain aware that every dildo is unique in size, shape, density/softness preference etc., meaning that no set period determines curing time.

A study conducted by The Journal of Sex Research found that one in four American women have used a sex toy at least once in their lifetime.

Looks like this dildo is really stuck in there…better call in a professional mold remover. Or a superhero with super strength, whichever is more available.

Removing the Dildo from the Mold

After the dildo has undergone heating and curing within the mold, the next crucial step is detaching it from the mold. This process requires attention and care to ensure a successful outcome.

To remove the newly formed dildo from its mold, one must first identify any areas of adhesion within the interior of the mold. A slight tap on the sides of the mold with a soft tool could loosen up this adhesion. The next step involves gently pushing or pulling the dildo out of its mold. Carefully gripping it, examine whether there are still any sticky spots between it and its container.

Once successfully removed from its cast, carefully clean off any remaining debris or substances that may have gathered during production. It is vital to use caution when cleaning around delicate parts such as edges or curves to prevent accidental damage.

Using an effective lubricant on top and in crevices can help with next-time maintenance and removal prevention if consistent detachment occurs during handling.

Throughout history, people have constantly sought alternative ways to bring about pleasure. The introduction of vibrators dates back to over a century ago, where early forms were used for medical treatments for women’s ailments such as gynecological disorders. It wasn’t until later in 1902 when Hamilton Beach introduced an electric vibrator designed for health benefits that we see more mainstream advertising around self-gratification use cases.
