Adhesive Barrier Wipes 50 count

These work GREAT for sports taping. It REALLY makes it stick. I usually let it sit a few seconds before applying the tape. It can be really difficult to remove though, so you might want to invest in the removal wipes as well.

This is to remove things like a CGM and the adhesive sticker you put on top of it. This works better than baby oil, and is apparently nicer than just acetone (nail polish remover) for the incredibly strong adhesive that go on top of CGM (see my other reviews), especially when using Skin Tac before installing the CGM and the adhesive. I recommend to use one throw-away glove (cheapest/thinnest is great), as with the gloves you can feel (cold) the parts of the compress that still have the product, and you don't waste any on your skin. Also no matter what these are nasty chemicals. You are getting some on your arm, no need to have them on your fingers. And last, the adhesive patches are sticky when this gets their glue to stop sticking to your arm, but they will still stick to your fingers. Procedure, start at any place where the adhesive is already a bit peeled from the skin, then wipe back and forth while pulling the adhesive away from the skin. Goal: get some of that liquid at the interface skin/adhesive. Be patient but go fast as these evaporate super fast. Unfold and use different parts of each pad before it's useless. I often need 2 of these to get rid of the full adhesive pad and the CGM (and wipe any side sticky/dirty ring on the skin around the patch. It IS worth the cost, like adhesive patches are. Patches to not waste an expensive CGM, and this to make removal simple and "fast enough". Even with experience, you might spend 3-5 minutes on this. With the Skin Tac (same brans, opposite function) Use: getting a CGM (continuous glucose monitor) Libre 3 to stick well for 14 days. - for one arm (alternate) wash the skin with soap and water. A larger area than you think you will need. - rinse it very well. - really really well. Soap residue won't help with anything - dry it - use some alcohol wipe for roughly where you will place the device (and break the skin barrier). - let it fully dry. Don't use anything to touch your skin, just let it dry. - wear some gloves (throw away, cheapest possible), open a packet and apply the compress where your CGM and where the wider sticker will go. - let it dry, throw the glove and compress to the trash (you can fold the compress inside the glove when removing the glove. - apply the CGM - apply the adhesive patch made for the CGM (see my other reviews) - don't clean/have a shower for 12 hours, and this will stick super well.

As a type 1 diabetic that wears 2 devices to control my diabetes, I needed an adhesive that paired well, but didn't cause skin irritation. These work so well and keep my equipment in place even during showers or swimming. Great product!

Very useful product. I used them to help keep my Dexcom patches on.

I use these wipes for extra stickiness with my Dexcom G4 Platinum Continuous Glucose Monitor. It is also helpful for insulin pump site changes. The extra adhesive keeps them stuck to my skin longer and better. In the Dexcom's case, I usually wear each sensor 14 days. I've never tried to wear a sensor longer as it gets less accurate towards the end of week 2. If you sweat or swim, or notice your adhesive rolling up at the edges or getting bubbles this adhesive stops most of it. I've sweated insulin pump sites right off my body! So, this extra step seems to make the biggest difference. Instead of wiping this adhesive onto my skin then proceeding with the site change as usual, I wipe the adhesive directly onto the sticky side of the sensor/site change (rub it onto the side that sticks to your body). Then, after everything is inserted, I wipe more adhesive onto the papery outside of the sensor/site change and some gets on my skin too. I learned this trick from Karri Sparling's diabetic blog, SixUntilMe. Sparling has a video demonstration using these adhesive wipes while changing an old Dexcom CGM and it helped me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nb-3TeVS5MQ&list=TL3NCySIkHUyDtq7ssWaRWinzK-uTORxw4 The adhesive makes anything it touches very sticky, so I wondered if any needle might get stuck going through it, so I researched it and found the blog. I add one step Sparling doesn't do: after everything is stuck on me, I cover the sensor with IV3000 tape (I cut a hold in the center for the transmitter is free and my insulin pump tubing can be removed). The IV3000 tape cover any sticky skin so your clothing won't stick your skin. Plus, the tape reinforces the site area from peeling or bubbling up. I don't use their special adhesive remover, but you need something because if you just rip your sensor off several layers of skin come with it and you will have a bright red mark! The adhesive remover that works for me is Rubbing Alcohol which is cheap and you already have it in alcohol wipes. In a pinch, fingernail polish remover on a cotton ball works well too.

I wear a Dexcom G7 and use these adhesive wipes before attaching the G7 and the clear over patches so they adhere to my arm the full 10 days. I put on a vinyl glove, swipe the wipe on my arm, wait about 10 seconds until my skin is "tacky" and attach the G7 and the over patch. I swim a lot during the summer and these adhesive wipes ensure the over patches stay in place. A great price for a great product!

This is my first time using the skin tax wipes, I have used the brush on liquid before. The liquid is amazing, but it is easy to put too much on and have a drip on the skin or if it drips anywhere else it makes a massive mess. The bottle also has a tendency to glue itself shut. The wipes are less messy, more convenient, I am able to take them to physical therapy with me, which is amazing. Normally I use them to keep my insulin and Dexcom pods on during the summer when it’s super hot and humid in the south. Currently, I am using it to keep kinesiology tape stuck to me. I’ve never been able to keep KT tape on and this helps the tape stay for more than 12 hours, which is awesome.

Works well to keep my CGM sensor in place. I also use it to hold down the clear protective patches I use over the sensors. Recommended.

Recommandé par un ami, j'utilise ces lingettes avant le collage de zms capteurs de glycémie et leur protection adhésive. Renforce réellement la tenue des deux produits, pour la première fois j ai réussi à garder mon capteur les 14 jours prévus (libre plus ABOTT). L'application est très simple, après désinfection de la zone a l'alcool, passez la lingette, attendre que ça devienne poisseux (quelques secondes et c'est vraiment très gluant) puis appliquer le capteur comme habituellement. Un indispensable pour les diabétiques. Pensez a commander le produit TacAway en même temps, pour retirer les traces d'adhésif au retrait du capteur.

ممتاز

Sehr gut. Die Stelle unter meinem FreeStyleLibre wurde in der Größe eines https://www.amazon.de/dp/B0F3X2YNX6?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1&th=1 an der Unterseite vom Oberarm benetzt, der FreeStyleLibre in die Mitte plaziert. Danach habe ich den funpatch darüber geklebt. Hielt super 15 Tage, 11 Tage davon in Dubai und bei Salzwasser. Die Finger kleben nach Installation. Geht aber mit Alcohol-Pads ab ;)

I was given samples of these wipes at the hospital from the diabetes education department to keep on my freestyle libre sensor. Before using these wipes, the sensor would fall off with 5 days left on it, needing me to refill my prescription sooner or get a replacement sensor from the company. With these wipes, it stays on the whole 2 weeks and it isn't overly difficult to remove when it's done.

Se nota la diferencia desde el primer uso. Crean una película protectora que hace que el sensor y el catéter se queden pegados perfectamente todos los días que corresponden, sin levantarse por los bordes. He probado otras más económicas y no tienen punto de comparación; estas son de una calidad muchísimo mayor. Imprescindibles si buscas seguridad."
