Works wonders and the price is right.<br>
<br>
Also, for split finger-tips, the Liquid Bandage I get from Walgreens (store brand) works very well also. Handy when you prefer to shake someone's hand and not have them wondering what kind on fungus are those bandages hiding....... (Store brand bottle is twice or more the size of the name brand at half the price - a bottle will last me many months.)<br>

> I pounded on mine for a couple of hours that afternoon after taping up. It didn't really hurt until I changed tape that evening. Masking tape, that is. Looked like the inside of an onion, but it was less trouble than I expected. Just like split fingers from winter dryness, masking tape cures a lot of wounds.<br>
