Gloves must be worn while wrapping the casting tape, since the resin in the tape will adhere to the skin
Select proper width of the cast. Open only one roll at a time, since room humidity will initiate hardening
Immerse the roll of tape in water with room temperature (20-25 Degree Celcius ) for 5-10 seconds and squeeze 3- 5 times
Construct the cast by wrapping spirally, over padding the previous turn one-half to two-third the width of the cast
Just three or four layers provide a strong non-weight bearing cast and five to six layers are typically adequate for weight-bearing cast
About 3-4 minutes after immersion in water the cast is sufficiently rigid to prevent further moulding
Smooth and rub the tape to achieve good adhesion
After application, allow 20-30 minutes before applying loads to weight-bearing casts[/vcex_teaser]
