So I've had my Dexcom stuck in place for a week now.
Adhered it with Skin tac and opsite dressing. I'm really pleased so far, it hasn't budged at all.
Question is...... when I remove it, hopefully after next weekend, as anyone got any tips for getting all the sticky stuff off?
I've heard rumours of baby oil, cocoa butter and Tac away.
Tac away would need ordering so if anyone knows of other alternatives I'm happy to give them a go.

Thanks you.

For me, soap works.
If there is some residue, nail varnish remover works.

Nail varnish remover! (Acetone.) Works a treat.

Thank you for the tips.
