Question 1

How easily does this remove left over sticky residue from adhesive?

Accepted Answer

Not as well as I had hoped for on its own.  I still use it, but finish it up with JJ Care Adhesive Remover Wipes.

Question 2

Can someone tell me the  ingredients of this remover for the skinister adhesive spray? as not listed above, unless missed them, either way thank you

Accepted Answer

This is a high purity silicone material; not a petroleum product like cheaper removers are.  This is Octamethyltrisiloxane.  It is formulated to closely match the polarity of the medical adhesive, so it removes very well without irritating the skin.

Question 3

Will this remove medical grade tape from sensitive skin?

Accepted Answer

Hi Sheelah - this is fantastic for removing silicone-based adhesives, so if your medical tape has silicone-based adhesive, it'll be amazing. Silicones and acrylics have different polarities, so the same adhesive cannot be used for both. Therefore, this is not recommended for acrylic-based adhesives.  We are developing an acrylic-based adhesive.  If you contact me privately, we can discuss your specific medical grade tape so I can give you a clearer answer.

Question 4

Will this help with the removal of kinesiology tape? Do you spray it on the tape?

Accepted Answer

No, this product is not recommended for KT tape. In a nutshell, you need to use a solvent that closely matches the polarity of the adhesive that you wish to dissolve; use polar solvents for polar adhesives, and non-polar solvent for non-polar adhesives.

Skinister Adhesive remover is formulated to dissolve silicone pressure sensitive adhesives, and other non-polar adhesives. For example, it is very effective at removing residue from my girlfriend's estrogen patches. However, KT tape has a highly polar acrylic adhesive, which is best dissolved by a polar solvents such as isopropyl alcohol.
