from East of the Mississippi!
Gender:Male
I do a lot of motorcycle "swap meets" (flea markets) - from beginning to end. From driving a load of products (up to 1,100 miles - one way - for shows, dirt & asphalt drag races and even benefits) each way - twice a year plus many other locations in 21 of the 23 states - east of the Mississippi and several west of it), helping to set up tents, trailers, etc... situating vendors in the correct places, helping to get the entertainment set up (usually a BIG NAME BAND), making sure the entrance gate crew is "arranged", help to set up our own 1, 2, 3 - or more vending stands - and all of that is just within the first hour or so - of arriving! I still have the rest of the 1, 2, 3 - or even as many as 10 days. AND THEN - It all has to be "dismantled"! This tape has come in very handy - especially since it is flexible and "stretchy" (and has excellent "sticking power"). One thing I don't need - Is a bandage coming off or tearing - in the middle of either putting up or tearing down a tent (trailer or whatever) - in then middle of a rain storm! And - of course, if it's a flat field and the rain takes forever to drain! So, there is also mud - EVERYWHERE! (Especially where that truck gat stuck - and made 2, double wide tire "groves" in the walkway - that also fill up with water! As often as I have used this tape - I have yet for any of it to come off! And I have 2 or 3 rolls of it in my first aid kit! If you find something that works - why change it?
I would recommend this to a friend!

Works sooooo great!

My mother recently had cataract surgery, and had to have a bandage around her eye. Being elderly, her skin is very sensitive, so we had to be careful with the bandage! This not only kept the water out of the dressing, but it was very gentle, soft, and easy to remove. I've used it several times since for when the little bit of padding is needed--love it!

Stays on in tub and shower

I purchased this on sale last summer and recently had a chance to use it on a large cut and scrape I got from a loose piece of metal on the screen door. The area was so sensitive to the touch that I had to have something to cover and protect it from rubbing against pants and pajamas. I used the tape to hold a large band aid in place because it kept coming off when I would get dressed or in the tub or shower. I dreaded when it came off. I would just cringe when even the air hit the cut/scraped skin. This tape kept the area covered regardless of the activity I was doing. I kept it covered the majority of the time between treating it with antiseptic and re-bandaging it. I was glad when It began healing and wasn't so tender so I could remove the bandage some.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Kept a bandage on wading in tidepools, yet didn't pull my skin off when I had to change the dressing. Pleasantly surprised.

I used it about 2 weeks ago when my daughter thought it be a good idea to walk around with her eyes closed she fell I used the tape on her injury she went to sleep whan she woke up it was still perfectly in place. I was surprised it didn't come off since she moves around alot. Would definitely recommend it.
