Message: <blockquote data-quote="Deleted member 527103" data-source="post: 2694313">I have used SkinTac as a wipe. It makes skin sticky so the pump or cannula sticks better. It also provides a protective layer if you find it irritates.It is less commonly used with CGMs where the usual approach is to cover a sensor to keep it in place. This is to ensure your skin is clean and nothing is attached to the filament when it penetrates.Have you tried any CGM covers? There is a selection available from eBay and Amazon.Edited to add a link to SkinTac <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Torbot-Skin-Tac-H-Adhesive-Barrier-Wipes/" target="_blank">https://www.amazon.co.uk/Torbot-Skin-Tac-H-Adhesive-Barrier-Wipes/</a> although this is not a recommendation due to the reasons above. And it may not be the cheapest place to buy them.</blockquote>
