Question:	what size is the one size, 60 account, max hold waterproof bandage
Answer:	3M is dead wrong on this 60-pack. The size of the whole bandage is 1 1/4" x 3". The real important thing, which they never bother to mention anywhere in any of their fancy packaging for any of their bandages, is the the PAD size, which in this case is 5/8' x 1 1/4". I bought one of these based on their comment of 1x4 and will now have to send it back, because it's not big enough for my situation.
Question:	Why isn't the size listed? I am not buying without knowing the size. Why not show back of box
Answer:	Absolutely Agree with you. I buy these bandages all the time and find it almost like a full time activity trying to find a seller that lists the size. This is what I found. Hope this will help some people. Sizes Available 50 count assorted sizes include: 20 at 7/8 inch x 1-1/16 inch; 15 at 1-1/4 inch x 2-1/2 inch; 15 at 1-1/16 inch x 2-1/4 inch | 8 count Knee and Elbow at 2-3/8 inch x 2-1/2 inch | 20 count assorted sizes include: 6 at 7/8 inchx 1-1/16 inch; 6 at 1-1/4 inch x 2-1/2 inch; 8 at 1-1/16 inch x 2-1/4 inch | 20 count one size at 1-1/16 inch x 2-1/4 inch.

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).

Nexcare Waterproof Bandages FAQs

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.

Do I need to change my bandage or dressing if it becomes wet?

No. Nexcare Waterproof Bandages and Nexcare Tegaderm Transparent Waterproof Dressings are designed to adhere through hand washings, showers and even swimming.

What can I use to protect my wound while taking a shower or bath?

Nexcare Waterproof Bandages are designed to stay on in wet conditions and keep water out. The 360-degree seal around the pad offers exceptional protection against water, dirt and germs. If you need to cover a larger area, try Nexcare Tegaderm Waterproof Transparent Dressings. This waterproof dressing seals out water, dirt and germs, and stays on in the shower or bath. If the Tegaderm dressing is covering an IV site, use an additional covering so that water does not enter the IV site by the catheter.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does the white rim disappear
Answer:	It is paper and you pull it off. It provides stability to make it easier to put the tape on.
Question:	Planing to use this to cover my new tattoo for beach swim. Advisable or not
Answer:	Advisable. They are waterproof. make sure the area around your tattoo is free of oils & lotions (wash, dry & maybe even rub some rubbing alcohol over the area to make sure nothing remains) and then make sure the area to be covered is completely dry.

Answer:	It should be. My mom used it to cover her G-tube for baths. Just make sure to put gauze or something over where the stitch is otherwise you'll have to peal this product off the stitch. It is basically a film of adhesive, you will have to cover what you don't want to stick to the product.
Question:	I have a skin graft and tegaderm came off. Would this work? Is easy to take off

User questions & answers

Question:	Do these stay in place once put on? I work in construction and need a bandage that will stay on
Answer:	So far, I'm having problems with several bandages I've tried from the pack staying on my thumb where I cut it. It could be just how I had to place it because of where the cut is located. But I do wish they stayed put better. I had to use 4 bandages -- so the cost savings isn't that great when you have to keep replacing bandages that won't stay put. However, likely if I had the bandage somewhere else other than on my thumb where I'm flexing and releasing and washing my hands a lot, they may do better. I'd say if you are in construction and need a really durable bandage, you may want to spend more.
Question:	What is the antibacterial agent
Answer:	It doesn't say exactly what type of agent it is
Question:	Can I just buy the infection control by itself? Haven’t been able to find it
Answer:	This comes as a variety pack so no, you can not buy them separate.
Question:	Where are these made
Answer:	The box of Curad flex-fabric ones that we have say they are latex free and are made in China.

User questions & answers

Question:	can this be used with a pad to seal in a medication
Answer:	Yes
Question:	After sticking it on my skin, can I apply makeup over it
Answer:	I’m not sure. Because it’s a film, I imagine it would rub off easily. Maybe try to put that liquid latex stuff over it that people use for Halloween for fake wounds over it so it just looks like skin? I’m not sure I just purchased the product for my tattoos but great product nonetheless. :)
Question:	can this be used with a pad to seal in a medication
Answer:	Absolutely! I'm allergic to standard band aid adhesive so I use this with a gauze pad and ointment on any wounds.
Question:	Can this be overlapped to cover a tattoo sleeve
Answer:	Yes, I believe it could it is a generic 3M Tegaderm. it is intended to create a waterproof airtight seal for cuts, wounds, or incisions. It doesn't have the overlapping ability of a flex tape.

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.

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.
