This topic is about dealing with a sticky, glue-like residue that appears on clothing after emptying an ostomy pouch. The residue seems to come from inside the pouch itself. Here are some insights and advice that might help:

1. Consider trying a different manufacturer or product line:
- Some users have found that Salts Healthcare one-piece systems, a UK brand, do not have this stickiness issue. They also offer adhesive-removal wipes, protective barrier wipes, and a more flexible backing plate. These products are available through US distributors.
- ConvaTec has released a new flat extended-wear pouch that might have different materials compared to the current convex pouches. Testing this could help determine if the material is the issue.

2. Look into how accessories might be interacting:
- It has been reported that Hollister M9 deodorant can weaken the seams of ConvaTec pouches. Switching to a different deodorant, such as Coloplast Brava, alcohol-free mouthwash, or even Tic Tacs, might prevent the residue.

3. Check the source of the adhesive:
- Some users have noticed that the residue might be coming from the flange glue rather than the inside of the pouch. Carefully inspecting the flange and ring can help identify the true source of the stickiness.

4. Verify the pouch batches:
- Since this issue has been ongoing for two years, it is unlikely to be due to a single defective batch. Contacting ConvaTec to inquire about any material reformulations could provide more information.
