Product Details
Looking for a more natural binding look? Try Transtape. 95% cotton and 5% spandex for breathable comfort and stretch against your skin, this extra strength athletic style tape has hypoallergenic, medical grade acrylic adhesive that stays where you put it. Latex free and non-medicated, Transtape can be used for binding, packing, and tucking. Choose from 4 different skin tones in a medium 4" width. The matte material creates a natural look and Transtape doesn't compress, so it won't restrict your breathing when applied correctly. It's also waterproof and sweatproof, so it can be worn in the shower, tub, pool, or ocean!
BINDING:
*DO NOT wrap Transtape around your torso, only apply from sternum to armpit
Those new to Transtape should wear it for short amounts of time and work slowly upwards. Remove immediately if pain or discomfort occurs. All wearers should be able to take a full, deep breath while wearing the tape. Size up until you're able to do so comfortably. Like all binders, Transtape should not be worn longer than 8-10 hours and should be removed for sleeping.
Nipple covers provide a soft, protective barrier between your nipples and the tape, preventing pain or injury with removal.
PACKING & TUCKING:
Be sure to shave the entire area you plan to cover with tape before applying. Use a soft protective barrier between the tape and any highly sensitive and/or stretchy skin (labia, penis, scrotum, etc.) to protect against ripping, tearing, or pain during removal.
Tape can be cut to fit your desired packer through and make taping to the body simple and secure.
When tucking, push the testicles back from where they drop from the penis out and back toward the anus. Tape from the top hip V to the top of the butt crack to support any weak areas.
REMOVAL:
We highly recommend having a removal oil and healing style lotion of your choice on hand anytime you're using Transtape. Transtape makes a Jojoba Removal Oil and Repair Salve that are our number one choice, but baby oils and tattoo creams can be suitable alternatives. Cover the tape in removal oil and allowed to soak for about 10 minutes, or when you feel the tape has suitably loosened from your skin and can be removed without injury or discomfort. If discomfort occurs, apply more oil and rub into the tape and around the edges of tape to encourage loosening.
Apply the repair salve after removal to keep sooth skin and keep it healthy.
*NEVER dry remove Transtape. Dry removal can result in skin becoming sensitive to the touch, hot, raised, inflamed or bleeding can occur.
