Pro Wrap 5cm x 4.5m Blue

Complete guide: Pro Wrap 5cm x 4.5m Blue

It is a self-adhesive cohesive bandage, used mainly for wrapping the grip of the tattoo machine. It sticks only to itself — not to skin or hair — and creates a clean barrier that you change for each client. It is aimed at tattoo artists and studios who want a hygienic workstation and a more comfortable grip in the hand. The current version is blue, with a width of 5 cm and a length of 4,5 m.

How to use

1. Clean and disinfect the machine grip before wrapping it — the bandage is a barrier, not a substitute for disinfection.
2. Unroll the end of the roll and attach it to the grip; being cohesive, it sticks to itself, without sticking to skin or hair.
3. Wrap in a spiral along the grip, with an overlap of about 50% between turns, stretching the material slightly (not to the maximum).
4. For a thicker and more comfortable grip, add a few extra turns — the 4,5 m usually suffice for 3-5 grip wraps.
5. At the end, tear or cut the bandage and press it onto itself to secure it.
6. Optionally, continue wrapping over the clip cord / cable, to protect it and allow hygienic handling.
7. At the end of the session, unwrap the bandage and discard it; use a new piece for each client.

Tips from us

• Do not stretch the material to the maximum: you lose length, and too much tension becomes uncomfortable during long sessions.
• A consistent overlap of about 50% gives you a uniform surface, without wrinkles that might bother you in the grip.
• Thicken thin grips with a few extra turns — this reduces hand fatigue during long sessions.
• Keep in stock both the 5 cm version (standard grip) and the 2.5 cm version (narrower applications), for versatility.
• The blue matches blue nitrile gloves, for a coordinated look at the station.
• Being resistant to green soap, ink, and water, it does not come apart during work.
