Quick answer

Clean your rotating anal plug after every use with warm water and mild soap or a dedicated toy cleaner, and dry it fully before storing. For silicone toys like the b-Vibe Rimming Petite, avoid harsh chemicals and always check the charging port seals.

Why rotating plugs need special care

Rotating anal plugs have moving parts—like the beads at the base of the b-Vibe Rimming Petite—that can trap lube, debris, or moisture. If you don't clean these areas thoroughly, bacteria can build up and cause irritation or damage the motor. Also, the rotating mechanism is more delicate than a simple vibrating toy, so you need to be gentle during cleaning to avoid breaking the seal or gearing.

Common mistakes to avoid

Don't submerge a rotating plug completely unless the manufacturer says it's fully waterproof. Many plugs have seams or charging ports that aren't sealed. Also, avoid abrasive scrubbers or alcohol-based cleaners that can degrade silicone over time. Always remove batteries or disconnect any charging cable before cleaning.

Step-by-step cleaning process

  1. Step 1: Rinse and pre-clean: Hold the plug under warm (not hot) running water to remove surface lube and debris. Use your fingers to gently rub the rotating beads to dislodge any trapped material. If the plug has a charging port or seams, avoid directing water into those openings.
  2. Step 2: Wash with mild soap or toy cleaner: Apply a small amount of mild, fragrance-free soap or a dedicated silicone-safe toy cleaner to a soft cloth or your hands. Gently wash the entire surface, including the rotating beads and the base. Rinse thoroughly. Do not use antibacterial or scented soaps, as they can leave residue or degrade the silicone.
  3. Step 3: Dry and inspect: Pat the plug dry with a lint-free cloth or let it air-dry on a clean towel. Check the rotating beads for any leftover debris or moisture. Once dry, store the plug in a dust-free bag or case away from direct sunlight. Never store a damp plug, as moisture can lead to mold or damage the motor over time.

Product facts

  • b-Vibe Rimming Petite Rotating and Vibrating Remote Control Plug: The Rimming Plug Petite is a smaller version of the best-selling vibrating butt plug, the Rimming Plug 2, and features rotating beads at the base to simulate rimming. Because the rotating beads are at the base, you need to pay extra attention to that area during cleaning to prevent lube or debris from building up inside the mechanism.
