About 3M Micropore Surgical Tape 1530-1
Overall Feedback:
97% positive
94% praised for its strong and lasting adhesive, while 6% experienced it peeling off
The adhesive strength of the tape is good and there were no issues with saliva compromising the adhesion.
I was unaware of this tape, but it works really well without causing any bruising or soreness while using it.
The medical tape is strong, doesn't leak fluid, sticks to skin well without painful removal and tears easily.
I have found that the old tape sticks just as well as the new tape and does not leave any adhesive residue. This is negative feedback regarding the adhesive strength of the first-aid tape based on my experience.
95% liked its breathable fabric, but 5% found it trapped moisture
I found the tape to be breathable, non-irritating, secure, and easy to remove without pain or difficulty.
I applied micropore surgical tape on the side of my face and noticed it was itchy after 3 hours. It left marks on my face and scabbed over.
94% praised for its easy and painless removal, while 6% experienced skin irritation
The tape moved with my face, allowed my skin to breathe, didnt cause any irritation, didnt fall off, and there was no pain or difficulty removing it.
I have noticed that the tape leaves a bit of residue after wear or removal. However, I have found a trick to remove it using Garnier micellar water and a cotton pad.
97% appreciated its flexibility and easy to use, though 3% found it difficult to apply
I use the product for mycology and double seal plastic grain jar lids by placing a small piece of tape over the inside and outside of the lid where holes are so that moisture isn't introduced to the outer layer of micropore tape when shaking.
I was unaware of this tape, but it works well without causing any bruising or soreness while using it.
If bandages are damp or wet from body weepage, tape does not stick to them.
89% appreciated its gentle, hypoallergenic material, though 11% experienced skin irritation
I had an allergic reaction after applying the tape to my leg and it blistered everywhere it was applied, indicating that the tape is not hypoallergenic.
After using the tape on my clean, undamaged skin, it caused itching and left marks on my face.
