Poll question: Band Aids: Fabric or Plastic
Well, which kind do *you* use? Me, fabric all the way, they stay on longer. :)

1. The fabric ones get skanky, though!
Maybe it's just because I'm always cleaning up wet messes.

2. I know, but
the quality of the plastic ones seems to have declined over past years...I'm pretty rough with my hands, so I need them to stay on!

But yes, you are correct :)

4. Maybe if you double up, you'd have the best of both worlds!
I kept bandaging the end of my thumb the other winter, because my skin was cracked, and eventually my skin started to peel off. :scared:

5. Eeeeek!
I hate the way my skin looks after I remove a bandaid...It creeps me out :scared:

But, I'm weird :D

3. For a mechanic, fabric is superior.
They stay on fingers and knuckles better.

6. Other. They haveto be non-latex
otherwise I get a lovely rash. I used to prefer the fabric, though, they stick real good!
