Re: swimming...matte spray...

[Guest guest]

I hadn't thought about swimming. I say take it off for 2 reasons - (1) how

long will they really be in the pool? and (2) being in direct sun while in a

pool, I'd factor in heat exposure. I can't think that such a small amount of

time, maybe 2 times a week tops can hurt them. I don't know about you guys,

but I have found it a lot of work to be in the water with them, so the time

would probably be minimal. As for swim lessons, they are always a couple

times a week and for short time durations. But as always, ask the CT

experts! Kimry

no, bands are not supposed to get wet.

No, you can't swim with the helmet on. And if they swim in a pool, make sure you rinse their hair very, very well to get all the chlorine out before putting the band back on. It wouldn't be good on the band or the baby to have it trapped in there.

Does it say what you can use to remove the finish when you want to change the design? I change Grace's a lot!

It doesn't say what to use to remove. I assume it's permanent.

I'll find something to spray tonite and see if alcohol/nail polish remover(???)

takes it off. Any other suggestions?

does anyone know if the babies are alowed to swim with the bands

(chlorine in water affect foam lining??)??

also, I did find some clear acrylic matte spray finish. Apparently

it's "fast drying" (how long is fast?), non-yellowing & water-proof.

If you're pregnant, though, you can't use it.

Kendra, Good ? about the swimming. I don't think it would be a good idea. I

figure the foam would absorb water. I don't know about the band but mt sons

helmet is glued to outer shell. Belinda

I've been able to get off the sealer I use with alcohol.Kimry
