Medipore Surgical Tape

Unbelievable performance and comfort! I'll be leaving the same review in the 4", 3" and 2" Medipore tape sections. I ordered the 3 different sizes to replace my assortment of sterile tapes I amassed over the years for First Aid Kits, Rescue SCUBA Diver, First Responder and just being active but having an occasional accident. I was used to the fact that some tapes are better for different applications; therefore I amassed multitudes of many different tapes. This durable cloth like tape has some very desirable and interesting qualities: * It has a high level adhesion and will stay on for a very long time. * It has pores that allow the under skin/bandages to breath. * It is perforated every 2 inches so it can be torn (no cutting required) from the roll. * It can get wet (still stays adhered). * It is easy to remove - when you want it to. * It doesn't leave adhesive residue when removed. * But the best part of all is that it doesn't tear/take away layers of skin that would make the area raw/sensitive. My first exposure to this tape was I hospitalized post surgery. I bandaged a leg incision with 4"x12" with some gauze underneath, changing twice a day from morning shower through night of sleep. I wore a 3"x4" patch on my palms (base of fingers to wrists) with a spot of gauze underneath during normal and heavy use of my hands. The tape would get dirty from using my hands, but stuck until I changed it out.
