Elastoplast Plastic plasters are made from breathable material that is water and dirt repellent. The non-stick wound pad cushions the wound and the strong adhesion ensures that the plaster stays in the place when protection against dirt and germs is needed. These all-purpose plasters are available in different sized strips and shapes that seal around all types of smaller wounds. Directions: Step 1: Clean the wound and gently wipe away any foreign objects such as dirt or grit. Step 2: Dry the skin around the cut or graze very carefully. Step 3: Apply plaster without stretching it, to avoid creases.
