Sliced my big toe open on a piece of glass in the water...right through the callous and left only a flap of skin. Tried to use liquid skin..no dice. Barely even held it on...however, when applying it burned...burned really badly. wrap it use antibiotics and shorten your session...or risk infection.
Yeah, the stuff is water proof, but the outside edges are already starting to crack a bit. Applied some crazy glue on it to keep it covered. I am just worried more about the water pressure passing over it when I paddle and loosening the glue. Cause if the glue comes off, it will probably take the affected skin with it. Thinking that a glove might actually be the call. double layered, double duck taped.
Do you have winter gloves to go with your wetsuite? Put the finger condom on, water proof tape the edge, then put the glove on and maybe tape the edge to that too?
Nope. Haven't used my cold water gear in almost 10 years. I don't have anything more than a pair of 2 mil booties these days. Seems like a wasted investment for me now. If I start visiting my pops more in the winter up in DE, I will have to drop about 5 bones and get my sh** right again. My homie here is a commercial diver, so he probably has some gear. I will ask him. I think you are right though, that would be ideal to get it all secured, then have the glove to keep it all in place.
Just use super glue to touch it up before your sesh. I did it earlier this summer and it worked great for me! I filleted my finger as well
