Suggestions for getting Sticking-Plasters / Band-Aids to stick

    Anyone in here got any suggestions for getting Sticking-Plasters / Band-Aids to stick?!? They never stick. I've tried just putting like 3 Plasters around the Finger but no good! Plasters don't stick to each other it seems. Adding Sellotape won't work. Insulating Tape won't work. There is another yellow-y Tape is it Masking Tape? Will have to buy some in Shop and try it. Any ideas?! T.i.a.

    I find it depends on the plaster. Plasticky waterproof ones never stick for me, so I only buy fabric ones, which always seem to stick just fine.

    Yo could try zinc oxide tape over the plaster and wrap it all the way around (ie connect the ends of the tape, not just tape over the join on the plaster). You should get it in any pharmacy in the first aid section.

    Fabric ones stay on but they do get sopping when they get wet so you need to change them more frequently.

    agree - fabric plasters stick perfectly, thats all I ever buy.
