Not necessarily in that order lol.
- Years ago they had a lube type on the site, can't remember what it was called, but it was rather "stringy" and tacky. It worked really well. Anyone know if it still exists or an equivalent?
- For storage, what do people find works best? After drying wrapping in a towel just leaves a bunch of lint on them, I'd like to come up with a better solution if anyone has any ideas.
Thanks!

@retroc4t - Your toys will definitely pick up lint/hair/whatever if you don't powder them after use. For storage (after cleaning and powdering,) I use a microfiber cloth to wrap a toy like a burrito. This keeps the tunnel open for drying, and provides separation from other toys.
If you want to put your toy in a bag, gallon-sized freezer bags from the grocery store work nicely.

@DoomGuy It's recommend that onaholes be stored in a breathable bag once it's been used once. Ziplock type of bags lock moisture in which can cause issues with TPE material's porous nature.

I use small cotton muslin bags with string ties. These are available for cheap and in bulk from the well known online marketplace. They are breatheable, so don't cause condensation/mold issues and actually help dry your product if it still has some residual moisture after your wash and dry routine. The cotton muslin bags also help absorb oiliness from the outside of the toy, making the need for powdering of the toy less necessary/frequent as it helps prevent the toy from becoming excessively sticky to the touch.
For lube -
After doing the onahole/torso fucking the rubber thing for around 3 years now, I have completely sworn off ANY Japanese lube whatsoever. I used to think I was getting friction burns on my penis from fucking the rubber (sores and dried out skin ... like dermatitis). With much trial and error, I narrowed down the problem to the Japanese lubes (sold on this site as well as packed into the onahole packages). The Japanese lubes are full of toxic chemicals. In particular, most of them use Sodium Polyacrylate as the primary ingredient. Look up the Chemical Safey Data Sheet for Sodium Polyacrylate to find that it is a known skin irritant and eye irritant, as well as lung irritant when in powdered form. So if you are bathing your sensitive genitalia in chemical skin irritant day after day using these toys, then of course it is going to dry out your penis and give you sores.
About 6 months ago I totally switched back to Made in USA lube (I use original formula water and glycerin AstroGlide ... and also the Made in USA "Sex Sauce" sold on this site when extra viscosity is needed ... adjusting viscosity with a spray bottle of water when needed). My penis skin has never been healthier. My penis skin is soft, supple, and well moisturized now (unlike the dried up prone to skin sores condition it was in when using the toxic Japanese crap lube sold on this site).
Consider yourself warned about the toxicity of Japanese lubes (they have no governmental controls over what chemicals they put in that crap ... and you can't read the ingredients on the labels because it is all in Japanese ... I only learned about the Sodium Polyacrylate issue through purchase of "Peace Lotion" from this site that actually had the ingredients listed in English {even though a Japanese product} ... The whole bottle went immediately into the trash once I researched Sodium Polyacrylate). Think about this, too. Any chemical ingredient that begins with Sodium ____ in its name is salt based. Thus it will dry out your sensitive skin on your sensitive parts over time.
Another thing about selecting a Made in USA lube, beware of silicone in the ingredients (it will destroy your toy). Many USA brands of lube advertise themselves as "Water Based" when they actually contain silicone. They get away with this because water is the main ingredient in them. You need to read the ingredients carefully. In particular look for DIMETHICONE in the ingredients list (dimethicone = silicone, as does any other ingredient that reads like "_____cone").
Glycerine and polysorbate type ingredients are common in actual true "water based" lubes (like original formula AstroGlide), and are safe for both your toy and your skin.

@Dissident It is good to hear you found what works for you. While you bring up some good points, some of the information are taken out of context or are incorrect. Chemical Safety Data Sheet deals with a chemical in its pure form and in concentration far above what you would find in finished products.
For example, the warning you stated on the safety data sheet about sodium polyacrylate is when it is in its pure powder form and only warns of eye irritation since it is in its pure water absorbent form which is not something you want for your eyes. Even though glycerin is not labeled as an eye irritation, the safety data warns of glycerin's eye irritation as well as issues for skin and respiratory systems in its various form.
Both sodium polyacrylate and glycerin are widely used in cosmetics, food, and medical field and considered safe ingredients within products. The key is its molecular weight variety used as well as parts per weight in the finished product.
Not everything with sodium in its chemical makeup will dry out your skin either. For example sodium hyaluronate is made by our bodies and help keep our skin, joint, and eyes hydrated.
A large portion of lotions from different Japanese brands are actually made by the largest lotion maker in Japan and Japanese lotions uses much less ingredients and are milder than its western counterparts. The ingredients are food grade and registered with Japan's Ministry of Health. It is good to be informed but please do not jump to conclusions based on information available online.

@retroc4t usually store them in a breathable bag that toy demon sells, but i also bag it up in a plastic bag without closing it because for some reason anything around it gets oiled up even if i powder the toy.

@retroc4t Not sure about the lube, but it might be a blowjob themed one as they are often marketed as stringy to simulate saliva. I'm a fan of the Magic Eyes "sweet lotion", but not sure if that's what you're looking for. For drying you could get a less fibrous towel like a micro-fiber towel. I still dab the outside with a regular towel, but use a paper towel for the tunnel, followed by the ToyDemon dry stick which is an absolute must. As a bonus I have a high powered fan that I blow directly into the tunnel for less than a minute

@retroc4t For storage, I think it's best to just get one of the Meiki Toy Bags. They're not very expensive, they don't leave lint, the plus size bag can store two toys at once and they're pretty discreet if you live with other people.
For lube, idk which one you're talking about. I just use the Adam and Eve lube, but I'm sure there's an equivalent on TD
