Dry goods guide | physical doll daily storage method

The real daily life after having a physical doll may be somewhat different from what many people initially imagined. Most of the time the doll is in storage, and the time we actually use the doll is a minority. Therefore, in addition to being careful when using, the correct way of storage is crucial to extending the service life of the doll.

First,Preparation and environmental requirements before storage

Before storing the doll, try to ensure that the doll's surface is clean and clean, and use a cloth, quilt or blanket that will not fade to cover the doll well, reduce the chance of hair and dust adhesion, and it will be relatively easy to clean during regular maintenance. At the same time, avoid direct sunlight, high temperature, humidity or extremely cold places to prevent the aging of silicone or TPE

Second, the choice of storage

Store on your back

Lying flat allows the force of the doll to spread out, thereby reducing the damage caused by the doll's own weight. But there's something about lying flat. If the doll is directly laid down in any place, its force point will be concentrated on the buttocks and back, in the long run, it will be squeezed by its own weight, resulting in deformation and flattening, especially for tpe dolls, once the body is deformed, it will never be able to bounce back

Method 1: Put the doll on a cushion, and put a higher pillow under the waist and under the thigh, so that the doll's buttocks are "elevated" by the pillow, so that the buttocks will not be deformed for a long time.

Method 2: Lay the doll on a memory sponge pad. The characteristic of memory sponge is slow rebound, can balance the surface contact pressure of weight, provide soft support force, so that the surface force of the doll is more uniform

Hanging storage: Hanging storage compared with lying down, any side of the doll's body will not be squeezed by its own weight, which is a good storage method for dolls with regular size, but it is not suitable for dolls with large breasts, and long-term hanging chest may have the risk of cracking

Method 1: Back hole: When the head and body are one doll or the head sculpture needs to be matched with the body, the doll hanging bracket in the figure can be used. The premise is that it is necessary to open holes in the back of the doll, and communicate with the manufacturer when placing the order, so that the factory can open holes in the back in order to install the hanging bracket

Method 2: Neck interface hook: This method is also a method commonly used by doll manufacturers. There is no need to open holes in the doll, and many baby friends will make their own scaffolding to hang the doll according to their own circumstances, which has a high degree of freedom and can hang the doll in a hidden place such as the closet
