User questions & answers

Question:	is this 5 yards per roll and is this a pack of 5 rolls
Answer:	5 approximately 1" rolls..didn't measure, but no way are the 5 yards each...
Question:	Can I use this to tape a sausage toe
Answer:	I don’t know what a sausage toe is and I’m scared to google it, but I use this tape to wrap my separated toes.
Question:	Is this latex-free? is this 3m coban? i have to ask as reviews state no
Answer:	I do not know if they are latex free. It is 3m coban on the inside cardboard, but if really 3M then they must be the ones that do not make it past quality control. They came in a bag with no labels and the items were smashed. They do not tear easily must use scissors. I would not buy them again.
Question:	Are these sterile
Answer:	No, but even in the OR they don’t routinely use sterile coban for dressings ...

User questions & answers

Question:	Are these sterile
Answer:	Yes, Nexcare Waterproof Clear Bandages are sterile.
Question:	What's the difference btween Nexcare waterproof bandages & Nexcare tegaderm waterproof bandages
Answer:	They are both waterproof, but the difference is what they are: the waterproof bandages are "bandages" so small sizes like what we all use for minor cuts and small injuries. The tegaderm ones are dressing which are bigger in size to cover a big wounds, more like surgery wounds, usually to avoid getting wet when in shower. Just read the sizes! This is the reason why there are less tegaderm ones in 1 package.
Question:	Are these latex free
Answer:	These will still trigger a latex allergy, that is why they don’t specifically state latex free.
Question:	What sizes are each of the bandages
Answer:	OK, the package states "7/8" x 1 1/16" (40), 1 1/" x 2 1/2" (30, and 1 1/16" x 2 1/4" (30). The smallest ones are like the "spots" Bandaids, the middle size is great to wrap around a finger, and the largest are great for someone who has large fingers or a wound on a larger area, like the back of your hand. Love these things, they stay on (unless you fail to ensure a tight seal and get a wrinkle in the plastic).

After you have washed the wound area, pat it dry before applying the bandage or wound dressing. After it’s on, press the bandage or dressing into place to help the adhesive adhere to your skin. Avoid rubbing the bandage or dressing or exposing it more than necessary to any liquids or lotions.

User questions & answers

Question:	Are these waterproof
Answer:	Yes. Sometimes loosen up if I’m in shower very long but as long as they stick they are waterproof.
Question:	Is this latex-free
Answer:	Yes, it's very thin plastic I think
Question:	This doesn't have the absorbent pad in the center does it
Answer:	It does not contain an absorbent pad, but you can buy a box of sterile individually wrapped gauze pads that are 2" X 2" on Amazon for a good price at this URL https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01AKCCD0W/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s01?ie=UTF8&th=1 Since the film is 2.375 inches by 2.75 inches you want more overlap by the film to be WATERPROOF. Therefore cut these gauze pads or fold them over to the desired size. Both these Tegaderm Film and the Gauze pad are available in many sizes on Amazon, based on your need.
Question:	What is the quantity in the package
Answer:	Usually defined in the listing , my last order had 20, you just have to read the listing

User questions & answers

Question:	In what country is this manufactured
Answer:	I can't tell you - information not on bottle and don't have packaging anymore. It is a good product.
Question:	would this work on a cracked nail
Answer:	I use the regular New-Skin Liquid Bandage, 1 Ounce for cracks on nails and it works pretty well. I actually figured this out one day when my nail cracked in the middle of the nail bed (ouch!) and it was impossible to rip the nail off without being in severe pain. So I had a 'lightbulb' moment and crabbed my New-Skin Liquid Bandage and painted it on my nail (it has a brush just like a nail polish brush) and covered my nail in it, 2 applications. 2 weeks later my nail grew long enough to where I was able to file it down with no pain at all. Now, I use the New-Skin Liquid Bandage for nail cracks (natural nails) so I can give my nail an extra week or two to grow out to where I can file it down to the same length as my other nails! Just be careful when doing the dishes or washing your hair so as to not bend your nail too much.
Question:	is this bottle smaller than 1.0 fluid oz
Answer:	yes it is smaller than 1.0 fluid ounce ....Its .24 Fluid ounces thats approx 1/4 fl ounce........Ive used this product for the past couple years and a bottle does last a long time and it really works
Question:	Wondering about texture? Does it feel more like gripping rubber or slippery? For dog that slips, falls (he'd be unable to lick it off
Answer:	PLEASE DON'T USE ON YOUR PUP!!!!! Tea tree oil is highly toxic to dogs, & is one of the main ingredients in this to kill any bacteria. Typically if a dog is slipping there is usually a reason that can be resolved. The most common & the 1st thing you should check is the hair around the pads of his feet too long creating a barrier between the floor & his actual pad. If that has been checked & ruled out then his pads may have lost some of there resiliency, which is super common for aging dogs, & this causes them not to have the gripping effect they once had. All you need is some paw butter "The Blissful Dog Paw Butter" (This is the best kind I have used& less than $9 an oz) https:/9/www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00TS4831W/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 You will just take a little bit & warm up on your palm, then just put the pad right into your palm & massage in, then you just repeat for 3 more paws. This will heal & rejuvenate even the worst most damaged paws. They won't heal overnight but even severely damaged paws can be near perfect in less than a week with 1-2 applications a day, & if you want to speed the healing even more... after applying the paw butter just put some socks over his paws for about an hour afterward to keep him from licking (which won't hurt him if he does,cuz it isn't toxic) but it's better if it all absorbs. I know you didn't ask for all this information, but I hope it helps you & anyone else that has the same idea/problem. I am not a licensed vet, but I have been in the dog profession for over 30 years grooming & showing dogs, so I have done a lot of research over the years to make sure that everything I use on other peoples pups is as natural & safe as possible, but also does a great job. The same company that makes the paw butter also has a nose butter that has transformed crusty cystic noses that vets have said needed surgery to fix. I use them on my 3yo Australian Shephard once a week just to maintain her perfect pads & nose...prevention is key.

Answer:	The control for raising the height of the bed is on the main control that controls the head and foot. There is also a hand crank that comes with the bed. I don't know if they include it in case of power failure. I had no problem in lowering the height of the bed. Hope this helps.

User questions & answers

Question:	How strong is the stickiness of this product? We have a toddler that loves to pick at a sore. She rips off band aids. Will this be hard to remove
Answer:	They are very water proof, but they also are not painful to remove. I would say your child will easily be able to remove it. Have you tried putting Aquaphor on the sores. It is like vaseline that keeps the sore soft while healing. It minimizes the itch of a healing wound and might discourage the need to scratch and pick.
Question:	Does the adhesive pull off easily from "thin skin
Answer:	Yes, I use this product on my 85 year old Mom who has very thin skin.
Question:	Is this product really waterproof
Answer:	Yup! If you've ever tried the nexcare waterproof bandaids (that have the clear border) it's the exact same material that is surrounding the bandaids. It's a soft, super flexible material- nothing like a typical "bandaid." I liked the Nexcare waterproof bandaids but had trouble getting them to stick bc of the cushion part & this was the perfect solution! Same technology/material but only the sticky part. I hate wasting money on regular bandaids that never stick then get wet & you have to replace them like 10 times a day. These are awesome!
Question:	The box says assorted and the description says one size can anyone tell me if this box is assorted sizes
Answer:	They are all one size but can be cut to suit the size you need.

Nexcare Tegaderm Waterproof Transparent Dressing FAQs

The flexible and comfortable design lets you keep up with your favorite activity and you can wear this dressing for up to a week.

Are there any types of wounds you should not use these dressings for?

The Nexcare Tegaderm Waterproof Transparent Dressings are not intended for application over infected wounds or serious burns. Refer to package insert for complete cautions and instructions.

How do I remove a bandage/tape or dressing that will not release easily from my or my child's skin?

If a bandage is not easily releasing avoid pulling on bandage, instead work a little baby oil or cooking oil into the adhesive to help the bandage release from the skin. Or use ice (covered with a paper towel) for 5 minutes or less. Ice will make the adhesive brittle, which may cause it to release.

Question:	something to drop into toleit tank for 3 mo cleaning of bowl. No attachnebt necessary
Answer:	These are bandaids. I'm pretty sure they don't clean toilets.
Question:	Are they latex free
Answer:	Short answer: no. The box says nothing about latex. The bandaid wrappers all have the word 'latex' with a circle and slash, as if to say they are latex free. Someone who is 'really allergic to latex' put one on, and it left a red imprint after about 20 minutes. Wish I hadn't bought them.
Question:	Is it waterproof
Answer:	They're not waterproof, but they will stay on if they get a little wet. For example, if you have a Soft 'n Flex on your finger when you go to rinse out your coffee cup and the bandage gets soaked with water, it will take a little time to dry, but it won't come off.

Question:	How much of this would i need to cover my entire body. Planning on making a sweet looking mummy costume
Answer:	I agree with 10-15 rolls, depending on your height and body mass. Each roll is 15 feet long, and you should overlap each wrap. If you were to wear anything but a unitard underneath, you would also have to add a few rolls for the bulk of your clothing. Good luck, this DOES sound sweet!!

Question:	Does anyone know if these are flesh colored
Answer:	No, but they are very thin to the point that color comes through them. They have white filament that runs through them (about 4 per 5/8" width strip).
Question:	Can these strips be cut with bandage scissors to a shorter length
Answer:	yes, they can be easily cut with scissors. They just don't stick, even to bare shaved skin, they will not hold a wound closed as they come loose too easy.
Question:	There are 6 strips in each pack X 10, correct? The price seems way off for that amount, just want to make sure I know what I'm getting. thx

Question:	How often do you change it
Answer:	I am a Nurse, these are never changed. They are put over an incision, and when they peel back on their own beyond the incision they are removed. If the wound continues to drain underneath and these start to come off on their own different wound care is necessary. It goes like this, surgical incision, staples for 14 days, these until they fall off on their own, healed. You can't under all situations just pull a wound together with these, it may appear to be healing but could be absessing underneath. A wound must heal from the bottom up and the sides in, not from the top to the bottom.

Product features

Small changes in product size & weight lead to lower carbon emissions.

We created Compact by Design to identify products that, while they may not always look very different, have a more efficient design. With the removal of excess air and water, products require less packaging and become more efficient to ship. At scale, these small differences in product size and weight lead to significant carbon emission reductions.
