Opsite Flexifix Transparent Film Roll 5cmx1m

Q: how thick is the product, compared to such things as brown tape or nexcare tape?

I have never used the tapes you mention, so I cannot compare. I like this tape because it feels very similar to skin and is hardly noticeable. I do not always use exactly as instructions, I find it is good for protecting delicate areas e.g heals from rubbing or keeping air out of small painful cracks in thumb skin while it heals.

Q: I’m thinking of buying this to cover a new tattoo while at work. does it peel off easy in the shower? is it breathable? how did you like it? thanks

I don’t think it would go over a tatto. it is sticky all over so if your tattoo is new it would be painful to remove . It would only be suitable if you were going to use some sort of dressing then use the op site to hold it in place and keep dry . Hope this helps.

Q: Can this be used to cover a peritoneal dialysis catheter to allow going in the bath?

I would say no but, I would check with you PD specialist nurse to be sure. I believe showering is better than having a bath with a PD catheter in situ and not for 2-3 weeks post op but ask the nurse specialists as they should be able to advise you and maybe even supply you with special dressings. The product is great for my use (sticking microphones on to people at drama shows) as it completely sticky so sticks to skin BUT for your use you could risk dislodging the catheter when you remove the film.. Not sure I've helped much, sorry. Helen

Q: Can you swim with this? Does it come away when submerged?

I wear it for two weeks to hold a glucose sensor in place. I have been swimming, shower and soak in the bath but it has never come off. It does become ragged after two weeks, but still holder the sensor in place. I believe it would definitely last through a swimming session.
