Complete guide: Paper Towel Roll 500 Sheets
A professional paper towel roll with 500 white, soft, and absorbent sheets, designed for daily use in a tattoo or PMU studio. It is the basic consumable for wiping excess ink or pigment, cleaning the work area, and absorbing liquids during procedures. The compact format makes it suitable for individual artists and small studios, as well as a backup in larger studios or in a mobile artist's bag.
How to use
- Mount the roll on a tabletop or wall-mounted paper towel holder — the smaller diameter makes it compatible with compact holders as well — or keep it within reach on the work station, protected from splashes.
- Before the session, with clean hands, tear at the perforation the number of sheets you estimate you will need and place them on the prepared work surface.
- During tattooing, use the sheets to wipe excess ink or pigment from the skin, together with your usual work solution.
- Use separate sheets for auxiliary tasks: drying hands, absorbing spilled liquids, and wiping surfaces with disinfectant.
- Discard each sheet immediately after use in the station's waste container — sheets are single-use and never reused.
- At the end, clean the work area with new sheets and disinfectant, then discard them together with the rest of the used consumables.
- Store the roll in a clean, dry place, away from moisture and the contaminated work area.
Tips from us
- Tear off the required sheets before starting work on a client, so you don't touch the roll with contaminated gloves during the procedure.
- The white color of the paper helps you immediately spot dirt or contamination — a plus for the impression of cleanliness you leave on the client.
- For wiping the active tattooing area, many artists prefer special lint-free wipes and reserve the roll for auxiliary tasks (surfaces, hands, liquids).
- If you have high consumption, compare with the 1000-sheet roll: the paper is identical, but the price per sheet is more advantageous for the large format; the 500-sheet roll remains easier to store and transport.
- Always keep at least one backup roll in stock — running out of wipes in the middle of a session means unnecessary interruptions.
- For mobile sessions, the compact format easily fits in your equipment bag and covers multiple sessions.
Warning: Sheets are strictly single-use: a sheet that has touched skin, gloves, or a contaminated surface must be discarded immediately, following studio waste management procedures. Do not touch the roll with gloves worn during the procedure — prepare sheets in advance or ask a colleague. Wipes clean and absorb, but do not replace disinfectants: use them together with sanitizing solutions, not instead of them. Keep the roll away from splashes and moisture to keep it clean until use.
Frequently asked questions
How many sheets does the roll have and how long will it last me in practice?▾
The roll has 500 white sheets. As a guideline, in a studio with average activity of 3–5 clients per day, one roll lasts approximately 1.5–2 weeks — actual consumption depends on the type of procedures and how many artists use the same roll.
Will it fit my paper towel holder?▾
Yes, the roll is compatible with most tabletop and wall-mounted paper towel holders. Due to its smaller diameter compared to large rolls, it also fits compact holders designed for limited spaces.
What is the difference compared to the 1000-sheet roll?▾
The paper is identical — same absorbency, strength, and texture. The only difference is quantity: the 500-sheet roll is more compact, easier to store and transport, while the 1000-sheet roll offers a better price per sheet for high consumption.
Can I wipe the tattooed area directly with these wipes?▾
Yes, they can be used to wipe excess ink from the skin — the paper is soft, absorbent, and does not leave excessive lint. However, for the active tattooing area, many artists prefer special lint-free wipes and use the roll for other studio tasks.
How do I use them hygienically during a session?▾
Basic rule: prepare the sheets before the procedure with clean hands, and do not touch the roll with contaminated gloves. Each sheet is used once and immediately discarded. Store the roll in a clean, dry place away from the work area.
Do the sheets tear easily? Are they resistant to liquids?▾
The roll has perforations between sheets that allow quick and clean tearing of the desired amount without accidental tearing during use. The paper effectively retains liquids and does not disintegrate under normal use, even when in contact with liquids.
