Do you wash off delay spray or leave it on?

Been wondering what most people actually do with delay sprays after they absorb. Some instructions say to wash it off before sex, other people say leaving it on works better. I’ve tried both and honestly they feel pretty different.

When I leave it on, the effect usually feels stronger and lasts longer, but sometimes it also feels a little “heavier” or too numb depending on the product. When I wash it off after waiting, the experience feels more natural and balanced, but maybe slightly weaker too.

I’m also curious about how these sprays actually work. Are they mainly affecting the skin surface or the nerves underneath once absorbed? Because if most of the effect is already absorbed into the skin after 15–30 mins, then washing shouldn’t change much right? Or does leftover residue still contribute a lot to the numbing effect?
