Silicone reacting to silicone?

Contributor: Naughty Student Naughty Student
Ok, I was just wondering if the people of the forum tend to agree that a toy made of medical grade silicone will not react to another toy made of medical grade silicone.

AND, also, do you think that the only way a silicone could melt/react would be if it were a lower grade type of silicone such as TPE silicone?

Just wanting feedback so I can clarify one of my reviews .

Captivating topic discussions on Silicone Dildo:

Should you flame test silicone toys?
If you do this and it melts, can you send it back?

What does melted silicone look like?
does anyone have any pictures of melted / ruined silicone toys? I was thinking about boiling and bleaching multiple silicone toys at the same time...

Do you think silicone dulls vibration?
I don't know if I'm just on a string of bad luck, or if this is true across the board, but I can NOT find a silicone toy that has vibes as strong as..

Don't like silicone....
I have a lot of silicone vibes and as of recently silicone is really driving me nuts. Sometimes it has an odd smell (I am really sensitive to smells),

Silicone dildo poll - which would you pick??
I want a new silicone dildo, but I'm not sure which one to pick!? I want something a little thinner than my other toys. They're about 5-6 in...

I have heard of high quality silicone reacting with things like jelly but I just toss my silicone next to eachother.

I don't think you should run into trouble when dealing with quality silicone products (I still keep mine separate, but that's just me). A company can call something silicone when it has impurities, but if it is from a reputable company they will let you know what it is truly made of. Usually if the materials are listed as medical grade, pure, or premium silicone you should be pretty good. My guess is that a pure silicone toy that came in contact with a TPR silicone toy would probably only have surface damage while the TPR silicone toy would deform or melt.

I keep all my silicone, elastomed (smartballs) and plastic toys together with no issues.

Jelly - and jelly like materials - I store separately.

That would be all toys I KNOW are silicone. I have gotten at least one that claimed to be medical grade and was not.

I do the flame test on everything now.

Oh yeah... the flame test. I forget the specific temperatures, but pure medical grade silicone can withstand a lot of heat, and what Carrie Ann was talking about was holding a lighter flame up to the silicone. If the silicone is high quality it will not be affected. Of course this is not a recommended practice.

But fire is fun!

I would recommend doing it to some non-insertable part of a toy. Maybe a handle.. just in case you do like the toy but it's not pure silicone, it won't be ruined

huh...set it on fire...why didn't i think of that? That's my usual test for things

So, does that apply to just toys? What about implants? jk

LMAO

Carrie Ann is the resident pyro and sets all her toys on fire so that we don't have to. Thank you Carrie Ann!

And no, taking a lighter to someone's boobs to check if they are real will only get you punched, Mr Sauce.


Happy Holidays Y'all!

So, I would not have to worry about being maniac about keeping all my Fun Factory toys separated from each other? Might save me some space in my toy box... for new ones.
