Adapt Adhesive Remover Spray Review for Barrier Removal

This topic is about the Adapt Adhesive Remover Spray, specifically Hollister product number 7731, which is designed to make removing ostomy barriers, or wafers, easier and gentler on the skin. This can be particularly helpful after activities like running, when the wafer might be more firmly attached.

Here are some helpful insights and advice from users:

1. Many people have found the Adapt Adhesive Remover Spray to be effective, though its performance can vary depending on the brand of wafer, the condition of your skin, how much you sweat, and any protective barrier products you might use underneath.

2. Sprays tend to work better than wipes because they can penetrate under the wafer more effectively. Wipes alone might not be enough to remove the wafer completely.

3. A useful technique is to be patient and allow the spray some time to work its way under the wafer before you start peeling it off. This can help reduce pain and leave less residue on your skin.

4. Some users have had success using a combination of products, like the SALTS Barrier Spray and Salts Adhesive Remover Spray, which is mint-scented. These products seem to work well together.

5. Since everyone's skin and wafer types are different, it's a good idea to request free samples from manufacturers like Hollister and Salts Healthcare. Trying out different remover and barrier combinations can help you find what works best for you.
