AeroPlast AquaGuard Waterproof Assorted Strips Box 100
One box covers most of the small cuts and grazes a first aid kit sees: 65 standard strips plus extra wide strips, square spots, fingertip and knuckle shapes and large patches, all with the same waterproof clear film. The film seals right round a soft central pad, so the dressing stays dry through showers and hand washing and blends in on visible skin.
SupaBond adhesive holds on fingers, knuckles, elbows and knees, and the non-stick pad lifts off without pulling at the wound. Every dressing is sterile and individually wrapped. AquaGuard replaces the AeroPlast Transparent assorted box (AT3041).
Features
- Six shapes in one box: the right dressing for fingertips, knuckles and larger grazes.
- Waterproof clear film: seals out water and is discreet on the skin.
- SupaBond adhesive: strong hold through movement and hand washing.
- Soft cushioned non-stick pad: comfortable and gentle to remove.
- Latex-free and hypoallergenic: suits sensitive skin.
- Sterile, individually wrapped: clean and easy to restock kits.
In the box (100): 65 standard strips 1.9 x 7.2cm; 10 extra wide strips 2.5 x 7.5cm; 10 small patches 3.8 x 3.8cm; 5 fingertip 4.5 x 7.5cm; 5 knuckle 3.8 x 7.5cm; 5 large patches 5 x 7.5cm.
How to use
- Clean the wound and dry the surrounding skin well. The adhesive only seals on clean, dry skin.
- Open the wrapper without touching the pad, and place the pad over the wound.
- Smooth the clear film down from the centre to the edges, without stretching it, so the edges seal all the way round.
- Change the dressing daily, or sooner if it lifts or water gets under the edge.
Seek medical advice for deep, dirty or serious wounds, and for burns. If redness or irritation develops, stop using the dressing. This product may not be right for you. Read the warnings before purchase. Always follow the directions for use.
