Easy removal
Post: 1
Posted Jul 16, 2001 by Shimoda
There are two methods that I know of for easy removal of sticking plasters or, as we say in the US, band-aids. The first is baby oil. Apply it to the band-aid and the area immediately around it, then pull it lightly off. The second is fingernail polish remover. Use the same procedure, and the plaster should come right off with some gentle pulling. I've personally tested the second method. I don't know about the first, but I saw it in a doctor's office.
