Quick answer

Keep your sofubi figures clean and safe with gentle dusting, mild soap cleaning, and proper display away from direct sunlight. Avoid harsh chemicals and rough handling.

Why soft vinyl needs special care

Soft vinyl (sofubi) is a flexible material that can react to heat, light, and some cleaning agents. Unlike hard plastic, it can warp or discolor if stored in direct sunlight or near heat sources. The paint on sofubi figures is also delicate and may chip or fade if rubbed aggressively.

Sofubi care FAQ

How often should I dust my sofubi figures?

Dust every 2–4 weeks using a soft, dry microfiber cloth or a makeup brush. Avoid feather dusters, as they can snag on small details.

Can I wash a soft vinyl figure?

Yes, if dusting isn't enough. Use lukewarm water and a drop of mild dish soap. Gently wipe with a soft cloth or sponge, then rinse with clean water and air dry completely. Never soak the figure.

What should I avoid when cleaning?

Avoid alcohol, acetone, bleach, and any abrasive cleaners. They can dissolve the vinyl or strip the paint. Also avoid scrubbing with brushes or paper towels. Stick to soap and water only.

How should I store sofubi figures?

Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Display in a cabinet with UV-protected glass if possible. For long-term storage, wrap each figure in acid-free tissue paper inside a box.

Can I use a display stand?

Yes, but choose stands with soft, padded grips or flat bases. Avoid stands that clamp tightly, as pressure can leave permanent dents in the vinyl. Check the fit before leaving the figure on the stand for long periods.

What if my figure gets sticky?

Stickiness can occur from heat or age. Gently wash with mild soap and water. If it remains sticky, place the figure in a cool, dry area for a few days. Avoid using powders or talc. Persistent stickiness may indicate vinyl degradation; consult a collector forum for advice.
