OK, at this point in my testing I had to put it on hold for a couple of days. You know, a job interview was a bit more important. Anyway, I brought them out for the next set of tests and lo and behold...The damage was gone! WTF!!! No welts to be seen. To say I was shocked is an understatement.



It was at this point that I looked at the lube I was using and noticed that it was of the natural variety, sunflower seed. Just for kicks I used one of my massage oils and performed the same test. This brought the same results, welts the next morning and gone by the end of the day. I am at a lose as to why. I placed them back in the lube and let them sit for two days, just to see if a longer time frame would make a difference. No such luck.



AT this point I was thinking of doing the ultimate oil test and place them in motor oil. The problem with this would be that the material may become stained and I might not be able to see the damage. I was reading a post on the forum about using Vaseline for anal play and then I knew what I had to do. I did not have any at that time so I went on to the Silicone lube testing. less

Well, the testing must go on.



Next up, Silicone lube. Same procedure, same time frame. I should mention that Rubber/Sil-A-Gel is suitable for silicone lube. So I did not test this material. Also, UR3 sometimes comes made with Sil-A-Gel. So, if the package has Sil-A-Gel listed, you can use Silicone lubes. This additive has become more used as of late, so I always recommend reading the package that it comes in. There are times when a toys material has been changed without the manufacturer informing the retailer about the change. When in doubt, go with a water based lube.



So first up, Silicone.







You can not see anything in the picture and neither could I. It did feel like the lube was still there, even after a couple of washings. One with the toy cleaner and one with dish soap. So the lube defiantly adhered to the material, but there was no damage to be seen. I also tried a different brand of lube, but I got the same results. On both counts, after numerous washing in friggin hot water and dish soap, the material went back to its original, like new feel. It has been said that some Silicone materials will work with some Silicone lubes, but that usually has to do with premium products. One of the lubes I used is a very “So cheap I don't even use it” brand so I am at a loss with this one.
