Guest guest Posted March 3, 2000 Report Share Posted March 3, 2000 So far we've been lucky with the "smell" of Grace's band. Of course, she's only worn it about 2 or 3 days total Someone said earlier that those packets of alcohol wipes (the kind diabetics use for their insulin shots) were nice. For the parents who are having to rotate their child's wearing time, those would be really convenient. Throw a couple in the purse (or back pocket), when it's time to take the band off, you wipe it out with the alcohol pad on the spot!

Our daughters helmet is farely easy to clean. Our doctortold us to clean it with baby soap when we give her a bath. So far,no smell. They never told me to use alcohol. But hey, if itworks....great. If not, maybe this could be another option:-)-Dawn Servings of fruit a day: 0 1 2+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as you are careful not to let any of the liner (the softer plastic that lines the inside of the band) get too hot, you should be fine. Just to be safe, keep your blow dryer on a low setting and try to avoid heating any one area too long, then stop once it looks dry.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2000 Report Share Posted March 3, 2000 does anyone use a hair dryer to dry off the inside of the band after cleaning it? I've been doing this so I can clean the band more frequently without my son having to go without it for so long. It seems to work, but I'm wondering if it's OK for the plastic. ----- Original Message ----- From: C.
