How to Use

For optimal application of DELTACAST SOFT Synthetic Polyester Casting Tape, follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Skin: Ensure the skin is clean, dry, and free of oils or lotions. Apply stockinette or padding as needed.
2. Wear Gloves: Always wear appropriate gloves during application to prevent the tape from sticking to your hands.
3. Activate the Tape: Immerse the roll in room temperature water (20-24°C) for 5-10 seconds, then squeeze gently to remove excess water.
4. Apply the Tape: Begin wrapping immediately. Apply firmly but gently, overlapping each layer by approximately one-half to two-thirds the width of the tape. Avoid excessive tension.
5. Mold and Shape: Mold the tape to the desired contour within 3-5 minutes of activation. Ensure smooth, wrinkle-free application.
6. Cure Time: The tape will be handleable in about 5 minutes and achieve functional strength within 20-30 minutes.
7. Removal: DELTACAST SOFT can be unwrapped or cut with scissors, eliminating the need for a cast saw.

Caution & Warnings

• Professional Use: This product should be applied by a trained healthcare professional.
• Skin Monitoring: Regularly check the skin for signs of irritation, pressure points, or impaired circulation.
• Avoid Excessive Tightness: Do not apply too tightly, as this can impede blood circulation.
• Water Temperature: Use water at recommended temperature for proper setting. Cold water may delay setting, hot water may accelerate it.
• Storage: Store in a cool, dry place and keep sealed until ready for use to prevent premature hardening.
• Allergies: While latex-free, discontinue use if any allergic reaction or skin irritation occurs and consult a healthcare professional.
