Powder or Vaseline for Tube insertion?

Noob here,

Got a wm140 from Amazon. Pretty good so far! Although i had to jury rig a missing neck bolt! Some minor scratches and crumbes in vagina opening though...
Researching repair kit atm, but wouldn't Vaseline be better for inserting the tube back in? Powder seems too harsh/dry?
This is after one use, removal and insertion.

Thanks...

I always used sanitizer gel or spray rubbing alcohol on the insert. I have silicone dolls though. However I used the same on the TPE doll I had for a short while and it didn't seem to harm it. Though, members with more TPE experience that I, have said not to use alcohol based products with TPE.

I would use powder as it helps the insert to stay in place better when installed. Vaseline is less messy, but if you don't hit the opening exactly right when inserting your penis, the insert can get pushed out of place making things even more difficult.
Of course this only applies to a TPE lady. With a silicone lady; use alcohol to install the insert. Also Vaseline or other petroleum based products are a huge no no with silicone.

For a tpe lady, i usually lightly oil the outside of her insert before pushing it all the way in with a wooden mandrel inserted into it. The baby oil will get absorbed relatively quickly (5-10 min... just go easy on the oil to avoid tpe oversaturation over time) after which the insert will stay put until you remove it. I wouldn't use vaseline personally.

Powder like Stewie said is also a good option, the wooden mandrel really helps here too!

Another trick that really helps is to try to make way for the air getting out with a finger or two as you push the insert in, otherwise pressure will build up in there and you'll have a hard time reaching the end.

It's pretty tricky at first i'll give you that, but once you get the hang of it and develop a good technique you'll have a much easier time doing it.

Thanks everyone! This isn't exactly the thing you ask a coworker about! Ha!
I must have jumped in shock a dozen times the first day! Come around the corner and...
Woah! Too real!
