A Balrog's raiment

I have always wondered if (given the fact that they were Maia) Balrog's could change their shape or walk unclad. Is it ever explicitly stated anywhere by Tolkien that Balrog's were bound to their Valaraukar form?. I know that this obviously sounds absurd but even though it was never stated anywhere that they did or could do this, was it ever stated anywhere that they couldn't? and if so why?.

Can anyone answer this please?

Thanks.
