Review on 3M Micropore Tape 1530 2 Rolls by Flip Shaw

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Pathetic glue - doesn't stick - doesn't return

Bought this earlier and ordered again thinking the last roll must have been out of date and dry. nope The new ones are as bad as my last roll. It will somehow stick to your skin, but it won't stick to itself if you try to overlap it to get more surface area and keep it on your skin. That way it doesn't stick to the lidocaine patch and doesn't stick to itself. So I figured I'd have to go to CVS and pay a fortune for their overpriced tape that sticks on the lidocaine patch and on itself. It's only been 7 days and Revain won't let me return it for unknown reasons. So I just wasted $9 on a useless product that is useless for my application. I don't know if I haven't finished my last order or if I threw it in the trash in disgust because I couldn't return it. It's been a long time so I can't remember. But this time I will remember. I used a different brand and was empty. That's when I started using this brand and it sucks compared to another brand. It definitely sticks to your hair. So yes, pulling the hair out will hurt, but it's not strong enough to stick to my skin enough to hold a simple lidocaine patch in place. I spent about $12 on lidocaine patches because of the cheap $9 tape. Only the tape of this brand gives way. Store brands and major drugstore brands work, but not this brand. I'm in the top 500 but was at 151 until I stopped checking everything I got from Revain. It's taking too long and I don't have many years of my life to write reviews to hit a record high of #151 out of over 63 million different people whose reviews still appear on Revain after removing all fake reviews. All of my 1200 reviews were detailed and accurate. But I'll take the time to make sure other people don't make the mistake of buying something. It might work for you, but not for me.
