Hi Folks, like many of you guys I use a remover spray, don’t really know how I ever managed without 😥 My product of choice is Convatec. In my last supply order I noticed a change of colour and logo. It’s now called Convatec Esenta! The next thing different was when I shook the tin no rattle 🤔 ok lets give this ago! Well shiver me timbers 🏴☠️ talk about a fast acting effect!! It takes only a short spray and hey presto. Plus sprays well at different angles . Great product and will last longer. Good for the plant and the pocket. Plus dare I say quite a snazzy looking tin. Ps does any one still use “snazzy “ ileostomy 31st August 1994 for Crohns @veganostomy... interesting! I did notice the change in boxes of wipes, which they really need to "fix" again"! Lol! I was very pleased with simply opening a box of wipes & not having to deal with the now 1/2" edge on both ends once the box is opened & you cut away the torn pieces. The new boxes have a stiff hard to rip thru rows of dots that need to be torn thru in order to even access the wipes. It never leaves a nice edge & in my eyes had made more work for me. I don't mind changes but how about not making more work for those using their products. When I open a new box I like to stand them up & make them easier to take out, the new boxes do not make it easier at all. I hope the changes in cans still work the same if not better. Thanks so much for the heads up John! Linda I don't mind changes but how about not making more work for those using their products. When I open a new box I like to stand them up & make them easier to take out, the new boxes do not make it easier at all. I 100% agree! Just your friendly neighborhood ostomate. Yep Tony, that’s the very one. I agree with you Linda if something is working why change. I have a friend who works in retail and says that a lot of packaging is changing as companies producing goods are shopping around for the cheapest in an effort to save money . ileostomy 31st August 1994 for Crohns I’ll use the sprays when I can’t get the bag to pull off easily enough. Like if they are really stuck on but I’m really liking this adhesive remover called REMOVE by smith and nephew. It comes in wipes but it also comes in a bottle as well. It just seems to get more of the adhesive off for me. I found when I do have to use the spray that I’m getting more adhesive on me from the flange of the bag. Then it’s that much harder to get off my skin. I’m using sensura mio bags now which tends to pull off quite easily if you go very slow and it does not take your skin with it. then I use the wipes to get off any residue.

The new convatec they said the only difference is in the drying time and they changed the name.
