I use the tape due to the recommendation of my physiotherapist. Basic is a finger joint capsule tear. The yellow band has just the right voltage. The material even feels a little soft. The quality is very good. It does not stick and is even under heavy strain on the fingertips no material weakness. It appears to have been pre-treated with talcum powder. But this is very pleasant and does not interfere in his hands. Unfortunately, I had already other bands that bonded and then torn. Therefore, I appreciate the quality here all the more. I have the tape for about 2 months in use. A smell I noticed directly when not practicing. Only now, when I smelled it. It smells pleasantly of balloon rubber. I would buy it again at any time and also recommend without restrictions. I can not think today would be a no shortcoming.
