Nexcare Coban Self-Adherent Wrap, Tan, 1" X 5 Yd

Since I work outside all year in sunny and humid Southwest Florida I tend to run into both vegetation and critters that can cut, stick or otherwise have its way with my fingers over and over. Thorns, razor sharp grass, burrs, splinters, bees/hornets, fire ants, the neighbors' dogs -- well, you get the picture.Since it is so hot and humid, and since I often have to use some type of topical medicine on the injury, just applying a regular bandage doesn't keep the wound covered or dry. After drying and cleaning the injury, and then applying the appropriate topical, I cover the area with the right size Band-Aid (my favorites are the extra-large sheer). After that is done, I wrap this self-adhesive tape around my finger until it sticks to itself.This has allowed me to protect any minor injuries and continue to work outside without fear of the bandages falling off. The combination of the Band-Aid and the adhesive wrap also helps to keep the wound dry while the topical is doing its job. Good stuff!

I read so many reviews till I chose this company. I didn't make a mistake. The product is super adhesive when wrapped around itself I needed it to hold cotton wrapped around my toe. It's 18 hours and still holding. The price is unbelievable. This is a product you can't find in many places. It'susually very expensive and of course Amazon came through. Faster shipping than promised and a super, exellent, strong quality product.PS VERY IMPORTANT! After you use the tape make sure you fold over the end of the tape because you will never be able to find the end of the tape to unwind it for the next time . It's impossible to separate it to pull it off again. I had to find a spot pull it up and cut it with a scissor to start all over again.

For a person on anticoagulants (warfarin), it's very important to be able to close nicks and cuts fast. This does the job very well, especially combined with gauze underneath. My only complaint is that after a few hours, the edges start getting un-stuck (so to speak) and get dirty and messy. Just replace and done!

I was updating some of our first aid supplies when I ordered this package of 5 rolls. Two days after I received my order (it's tan, not blue like the photo!), our son fractured his finger in baseball. Luckily I had this wrap to stabilize his finger on a splint. It sticks really well to itself but doesn't have adhesive like tape, so it doesn't leave that goopy stain on his hand. It also doesn't lose its adhesive when an ice pack is applied. I like that it stretches for a firm fit without being too tight on his finger.The doctor said he has to wear the splint for a month, so these 5 rolls will come in handy. The wrap can't really be used a second time (although it still sticks to itself just fine) because it get tangled on itself when you remove it. But at $2 per roll, it's not a big deal to just use a new section of wrap each time.I'm going to order more, because with kids you never know when you'll need it!

Buyer beware! Although the request for a review says, " Note: that this offer is for 1 roll...", this warning is NOT prominent in the ad on Amazon. Instead most of the ad is taken up by the picture of a Nexcare box. This is the same box I have seen and purchased in surgical supply store/pharmacies. It clearly says that their are five rolls of self-adhesive wrap, not one. When it arrived their was no box or other sign that Nexcare is the manufacturer. It appears the same as if someone bought one of these boxes of five rolls (of self-adhesive wrap) and simply repackaged them to sell individually. At $6.17 each, it would cost over thirty dollars to buy the five shown in the ad. This is several times more than one would pay at a retail location described above. My faith in Amazon is not the same as it was before and I would recommend that no one buy this product at that price. I would never had made this purchase if it was clear that only 1 roll was being offered at this price. Amazon should pull this as immediately!

Just like the stuff I use for the horses, but smaller and a human flesh tone instead of bright blue. I use it to protect cracked fingers in winter, and a couple wraps around my index finger or thumb or both when hand sewing. It's perfect to grab the needle when sewing denim.For first aid it's excellent to hold a bandage in place but you need to use more.I think the entire package is 5 yards because a roll goes fast. I find this an indispensable first aid and general purpose tape to protect fingers. I don't worry about the color, I have also cut down a larger size roll from my horse supply for personal use.

This ok. It does work but not as good as I hoped I needed the product when I purchased it.. So I kept it.But I am extra cautious being diabetic with open wounds.. I have a bad leg and needed it to wrap if I go outYou will need gauze under it..I hate to say this but product did have a soiled piece had to cut off of bandage wrap.Was a good price but watch if you purchase it.That its not soiled.. Won't hold in place overnight, mostly good for day use.The self adhesive part gave me a break from fabric ones. That 's what made it good.

I have edema issues with my hand and forearm, and part of my therapy is to wrap the fingers with 1" Coban, and the hand/forearm with a combination of 1" and 2" Coban. This is exactly the same Coban that my therapist uses, and it performs well.Pro tip: If you have to wrap your fingers with Coban, your fingers will stick together much of the time - very annoying. If you apply some hand lotion to the Coban on sides of your fingers, they won't stick together for at least 10-12 hrs. It may break down the Coban a little quicker, but I never leave a wrap on for more than 48 hrs anyway.
