3M Coban self-adherent wrap

3M

Burning Man camp gear

A wrap that sticks to itself, which is why it holds when tape gives up in the dust.

Why it's on the list

Tape fails once the skin and the roll are both dusty. Coban sticks to itself, so a wrap on a blister, a finger, or a moleskin edge stays put. The first-aid booklet prefers it to tape out here for that reason. One roll lives in the day bag. The box stays at camp.

How we use it

This listing says it contains latex. If latex is a problem for you, do not use it. Follow the label. It is a wrap, not a treatment. A foot you cannot walk on is a medical tent.

Heads up

Do not wrap so tight that the color changes. Cut the tails and pocket them. A loose tail is moop.
