It all depends upon who uses/is used on, the toy. For leather or rubber metal or steel you can use barbercide. For metal or steel or non-porous materials you can use enviorocide(spelling?). When using either one, it is best to liberally wipe it on the item you want to clean then let it sit for any where from one to five minutes. The more people the item is used on the longer the sanitizing. Remember things like horsehair whips are things that are best used on ONE person only. they create too many little breaks in the skin. The crackers on a bull/snake whip fall into the same catagory, if you play with more than one person. Sanitizers are harsh on some products, so use a conditioner whenever possible. Some toys will absorb the sanitizer so rinse fully and alwyas look for signs of irritation/allergic reactions. Depending upon the product and the sensitvities of those using the toys a wipe with Povidone Iodine(let sit one to five minutes) and a thorough rinse can be enough. Remember that any Iodine solution may stain(even permenantly). The more people use the toy, the more you want to clean it, the higher the level of cleanliness required to keep you and the one you are playing with safe. Isopropyl Alcohol is only good as long as it is there, when it is gone so are its anticeptic properties.
Make cleanliness a part of your scene:
Clean each toy before it is used
Clean each toy after the scene is over
This can be part of each scene ritual and helps with aftercare. Having a sub/slave clean the impliments after they have been used on them, gives them the oppertunity to rehash/solidy the pleasure that was experienced; as well as learn how to clean each impliment. A good Master will elicit some feelings from the sub/slave about the impliment that they are cleaning and get some honest feedback to use the next time.
