Very upset you did not wear the Xmas sweater I sent you... Great Video!

[@SimulationTek]

Hey, I wore plaid, that’s painful enough. Lol. But it fits the theme. Not sure anyone notices though. Lol. Thanks sir.

How long can you leave the Mepitac tape on the skin before it comes off or starts reacting with the skin? I'm wondering how long you can leave the other products on, too. I'll have to try a few out!

[@SimulationTek]

So I’ve left mepitac tape on for weeks, if not messed with, stays fine, doesn’t do what transpore does on PVC skins. Eeeewwww. But in real world sim use it’s usually good for 1-2 day in my experience.

[@SimulationTek]

I haven’t done long term tests with the other products. I would expect about the same, to less time. APHIX, is usually good over time. But only good for 1-2 “sticks”. That half of the belly has sat on a table since filming and nothing had touched it, seems just the same as the day I applied it
