Spray on plasters

[Decaff]

I have a couple of these cans in my FAK and have used on foot blisters once they have popped to stop being rubbed raw again.

Totally clear and takes a good while for it to wear away/scrub off.

Anyone else used these and how do you rate them??

They're great, especially if you have the type that contains an antiseptic. The biggest threat to small wounds is infection, so if you're spraying on something that not only protects against that but then seals over the infection point then you're doing the best thing you can.

Not to be used on weeping wounds though for obvious reasons but I've found it pretty useful to have around and one of course can be sprayed to fit any size you need. I smells like plasters from my childhood too

Depends on what type and brand you're using, some can be applied straight to a cut or graze immediately. The really good stuff can be used during surgery!

You can get it from a medical supplier, it's not a controlled drug or anything like that. Trouble is, it's expensive. I've just had a look at a a couple that I've used and they're a bit steep;

Can't find any suppliers for the other two in the UK, but there are some on Ebay - although I'm not sure I'd buy medical supplies from there lol.
Dentists use one called GluStitch that I'm pretty sure you can buy from them direct, but you're looking at a similar cost.

Whatever happens, don't let anyone tell you that regular superglue works fine, it's toxic and potentially harmful. It comes from a slightly exaggerated history of superglue being used in Vietnam. It sort of was, but there's a whole long story about it and it's not the same thing as Loktight etc.

Tesco stock the savlon stuff

My word that is expensive!! I will have to stick ( )to the shop stuff I think.

No way would I use superglue, not good with that and over the years I've stuck myself to various things, shoes, ornament's, bags, furniture, cloth and myself

I use something called Pinflair glue gel and its as good as superglue, waterproof and dries clear. It was created for crafters use and i can recomnend it. No smell either unlike silicone glues/gels. But not recommended for use on the body

That's where I got mine from and boots/sainsburys stock it too. I think its available in most shops now.
