Hi All. after watching one of the reviews it decided to try out some thing I have never used before. The Product is Niltac Adhesive remover. I never really have much bother taking of the wafer but was curious about these wipes. Am I impressed YES AMAZED! started by slowly peeling and wiping and then wiped some more round the stoma. nothing left clean it felt real good, only I was having a shower I could have put on a new wafer their and then. (I do see on the review its still best to follow with water) When showered and dried I used the Silesse Barrier wipe instead of my usual alcohol based product. Again impressed so will definitely be adding these to by ostomy supply order.

Eakin rings and spray are great , and with any remover I wipe down with water wipes , they are like baby wipes but very pure and no chemicals , dont know if ye have supervalu up north but they stock them .

John, You will like the spray--It takes off any paste/stuck on seals, etc. without rubbing... 

Just spray let it sit for a few seconds, and tissue off. I also use the safe n' simple to take off any spray.. I don't have to use the spray often tho-- Been using the Ekin seals from the beginning.. 

I also use a white wash cloth to clean this area.  

I feel of our little Jamie, being a baby-his skin is so delicate.. Not fare huh?

Most spray adhesive removers are wonderful to use. Some adhesive remover wipes are bad (leave too much residue).

Glad you guys have found products that work for you!

Adhesive removers are available everywhere and through just just about every manufacturer! 

Safe N Simple is made by SNS medical, and they are an American company 😁

But Coloplast and Hollister also have good adhesive remover sprays and wipes.

Brava Spray adhesive remover is made by Coloplast . I buy in the USA . Its everywhere. Just google it . Funny thing is it sells for around 10-15 dollars without insurance. I got my invoice they sent to insurance it was 1.35 a can . Can you believe the mark up without insurance. SAD 😢

I use Hollister's Adapt No Sting Universal Remover Wipes. As advertised no sting. Does not seem to leave a residue, but I always wipe off with a clean wet cloth after. 

I also have some Uni-Solve wipes from Smith&nephew. These sting terribly, they are not my favorites. They do remove the adhesive, but just can't get past the sting...

Both are available in the US. I get the Hollister through my supplier. The Uni-Solve came from a local med store.
