Anyone ever get a bad roll? As in not sticking at all? I got more bad than good. But the good one was great.

Quite the opposite. It’s like pine tar.

But I haven’t applied it in cold temps. So I imagine it’s like any tape in that regard.

is this used to prevent blisters from happening or put over a blister after it happens?

I tape my feet up the night before I go elk, pheasant etc., hunting and plan on doing a lot of hiking/walking. Great way to prevent blisters and hot spots. Normally lasts a few days.

If I use it on blisters it is after I cover the blister with something else that will protect and cushion and then tape over to prevent it from coming off walking/hiking.

Same as above, prevention only. If you wanted to use it after you'd gotten a blister, I'd recommend you still use moleskin around the blister (the leukotape isn't thick and padded like moleskin) and don't put the leuko directly on the blister. It's sticky enough that it can take some stuff with it when you try to pull it off. I usually let it peel off naturally, which can take a few days to a week.

Yep, stick to using it as a preventative measure. I've had luck with taping directly over hot spots EARLY, but I have applied it too late and had to let it peel off naturally.

It sticks like adhesive tape of 30 years ago. You can put it on and it will last for days and through several showers.

I have an issue with one of my pinky toes curling under and the nail digs into the toe next to it. I put a little strip of leukotape on the toe and it will last 3-4 days. It would probably go longer but that is as long as I have tried it.

Several years after getting my first roll I'm still rocking the very same pieces I put on the very first time! It refuses to come off! I've tried pulling, peeling, ripping... even a chain saw.

Thinking about selling the rest since I obviously won't need it.
