Application Tips

1. Skin Prep: Ensure the skin is clean, dry, and free from oils or lotions before application for maximum stickiness.
2. Tension Control: Apply with enough tension to provide support, but ensure it is not so tight that it restricts blood circulation.
3. Smooth Finish: Rub the bandage gently after application to activate the adhesive and ensure a smooth, secure bond.
