Assess the skin
Use only on clean, dry and intact skin. Check for wounds, irritation, hair and known sensitivities.
SKILL MAKES THE DIFFERENCE
Good taping starts before the first strip.
A technically sound tape job requires preparation, anatomical knowledge and checks during and after application. This is general product information, not a substitute for professional assessment.
- CE Class I
- Inelastic
- Hand-tearable
Define the goal
Choose width and technique based on anatomy and intended function. More tape does not improve a tape job without a clear goal.
Apply with control
Avoid folds and unnecessary tension. Rub the tape down to establish adhesive contact.
Check immediately
Ask about comfort and check circulation, colour, temperature, sensation and movement beyond the tape.
Check again
Loading can change how the tape feels. Reassess during movement and remove immediately if warning signs occur.
Remove calmly
Support the skin and roll the tape back low and slowly. Use a suitable tape remover when needed.
WHEN TO STOP
The body sets the limit.
Remove the tape for tingling, numbness, pale or blue discolouration, marked swelling, coldness, breathing difficulty, skin reaction or increasing pain. Seek professional help if symptoms persist or are severe.
Albert’s tip
Exposed adhesive edges can stick to socks. A small amount of talc applied only to visible adhesive edges may reduce sticking and rolling. Avoid wounds and do not inhale the powder.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
Clear answers for an informed product choice and responsible use.
Is Dream Tape elastic?+
No. Dream Tape is a rigid, inelastic sports tape and therefore differs from elastic kinesiology tape.
Which widths are available?+
Dream Tape is available in 2.5 cm, 4 cm and 5 cm widths. Every roll is 10 metres long.
Can Dream Tape be torn by hand?+
Yes. The specially designed edges allow controlled hand tearing without rapid fraying.
Is Dream Tape latex free?+
The manufacturer states a latex-free formula. The adhesive mass includes natural rubber, synthetic resin, colophony, lanolin and zinc oxide. Always check the composition if sensitivity is known.
How should sports tape be applied?+
Apply to clean, dry and intact skin. Avoid folds and excessive tension. Functional ankle or finger taping requires appropriate skill.
When should the tape be removed immediately?+
Remove it if pain, tingling, numbness, discolouration, swelling or coldness beyond the tape increases.
