Napkins impregnated with isopropyl alcohol 100pcs

Both. In addition to disinfecting the skin before tattooing or piercing, the wipes work very well for cleaning non-porous surfaces in the station: metal or plastic grips, pen machine bodies, cables, work lamps, trays, and cartridge holders. 70% isopropyl alcohol does not damage plastic, metal, or rubber under normal use. However, always use a separate wipe for equipment from the one used on the skin, and avoid LCD screens or sensitive electronic components. For large surfaces, combine them with a surface disinfectant spray.

Keep the box at room temperature (15-25 °C), in a dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources — isopropyl alcohol is flammable. Since each wipe is individually sealed in a foil sachet, they do not dry out even if the package is left open for months; sterility is maintained as long as the individual sachet remains intact. Check the expiration date printed on the box — the shelf life is typically 24-36 months from manufacturing — and keep the box with the lot number for the studio's hygiene records.

70% isopropyl alcohol works quickly (30-60 seconds) but has no residual effect — once evaporated, it no longer protects. Chlorhexidine works more slowly but leaves residual protection for several hours. For skin preparation before tattooing, isopropyl alcohol is the standard: its quick action is sufficient, it does not interfere with the ink, and unlike chlorhexidine, it does not leave a film on the skin that can affect stencil transfer. Chlorhexidine remains an option for situations where you want prolonged protection after the procedure.

Yes, this is even one of the standard uses. Wipe the area with a wipe using circular motions from the center outward, then let the alcohol evaporate completely. Clean and degreased skin helps the stencil adhere correctly and evenly. Important: apply the stencil only after the skin is perfectly dry — residual alcohol can dilute or wipe away the transfer.

For an active studio, yes. The cost per wipe is significantly lower than for the 10-pack — the saving is approximately 30-40% per piece. With an average consumption of 3-4 wipes per day, the 100-pack provides about a month of autonomy. The formula is the same as the small version, so you are not compromising on quality. A practical approach: the 100-pack as standard stock in the studio, plus a small pack in the mobile kit for conventions or guest spots.

The wipes comply with European regulations for medical devices, have a traceable batch and visible expiration date, and skin disinfection with 70% isopropyl alcohol is a recognized method for skin preparation before tattooing and piercing procedures. For inspections, keep the original box with the batch number and expiration date, and include their use in the studio's written hygiene protocol, according to local authority requirements.
