I forgot my bottle of liquid bandage this trip.

Can a Bonaire resident or frequent flyer tell me where I can get some? I'd prefer to avoiding going shop to shop on a hunt.

Thanks in advance.
 
It's just clear nail polish...



And if you need liquid sutures....super glue.

And OB tampons for gunshot wounds.... Yes, They do work well.....

+1 on the liquid sutures = super glue, but I think clear nail polish is a lot less flexible than liquid bandage (or what we used to call "Nu-Skin".) Nail polish might work for some things, tho.
 
Thanks all. Yes, it is similar to Super Glue. Will give that a shot.

You know they have chitosan tampons now right? Great for bullet wounds...unless you are allergic to shellfish.

I just was told and used OB tampons in battle first aid kits... Unwrap the little bugger and push it in the wound... Top wrap with a battle bandage... :wink: I understand that there is a new trauma wound product being used by some SEAL/SF operators in the field that really works fast at plugging gunshot wounds...

I guess the injury can't be that serious if you had time to post the question. Glad you (or whomever is the injured party) is relatively okay. Bleeding out would really ruin a vacation.
