Sometimes silicone products can retain oil residue on its surface. You will know if you have oil residue because you will seewhite spots or notice a soapy tasteafter you wash your product in the dishwasher. Try to avoid any dish soap that contains essential oils, antibacterial agents and moisturizers. These oils can stick onto silicone materials and may cause build up. Also, only use unscented soaps with silicone products. We recommend Better Life Dishwasher Gel or their Free and Clear Dish Soap as well as Seventh Generation Unscented dish detergent. A gel detergent is gentler over time on silicone products in the dishwasher (compared to tabs or abrasive powders that will slowly damage the silicone).
Don't worry if you have oil residue build up, as it is easy to remove. Rub a freshlemon or lime all over the silicone and let sit for 10-15 mins. Rinsewith hot non-oil based soapy water or wash your product in the bottom rack of your dishwasher. You can also use white vinegar to clean your Kiddiebites products.Additionally, you can soak your product overnight for any stubborn stains or residues.
