Q: How do I apply Nexcare™ Waterproof Bandages? A:  1. Clean the wound thoroughly. 2. Pull wrapper apart. 3. Grasp end tab and peel bandage off wrapper 4. Apply to wound, pressing firmly; bandage will not stick if repositioned. 5. Remove paper frames at openings. Q: How can I help a bandage or wound dressing stick to my skin better? A: After you have washed the wound area, pat it dry before applying the bandage or wound dressing. After it's on, avoid rubbing the bandage or dressing or exposing it more than necessary to any liquids. Q: How often should I change my bandage? A: Change your bandage every day, or several times a day if it becomes wet or dirty. If you are using Nexcare™ Waterproof Bandages, these do not need to be changed if they become wet. Q: How do I remove a bandage/tape that will not release easily from my or my child's skin? A: 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. Q: Where can I purchase Nexcare™ Products? A: Nexcare products are available at Guardian, Watsons, Unity, Fairprice Finest, SaSa. Q: Do Nexcare™ Products contain natural rubber latex? A: Many of the bandage products are made with latex free materials, including: Nexcare™ Active™ Waterproof Bandages, Nexcare™ Heavy Duty Fabric Bandages, Nexcare™ Brights Comfort Fabric Bandages and Nexcare™ Comfort Pals™ Bandages. Most of the first aid tapes and wound closures, such as Nexcare™ Waterproof Transparent Film Dressings, are also made with latex free materials.
