Yea I'd like to know more about this stuff to, how well does it work exactly, I could use some skin protection for my fingers/thumb. I've been bowling quite a bit.

Need to keep in mind there is tape intended for the thumb and then tape intended for the fingers. I tried to thumb tape for me I could not get a good release of the ball. My thumb seemed to have slipped out of the hole to fast. Also tried a couple samples of finger tape. Problem I had was getting them to fit ok. I would either get it to tight or to loose. Also since my finger holes are a little tight the tape made it even worse. Sorry not a lot of help but hopefully it helps.

I recently tried the vise black skin protection tape on my middle finger. I was having a problem with my skin cracking/splitting near the corner of my nail. It was actually a paper cut that wouldn't heal. I used the tape covering my fingernail and took it down the bottom of my finger near my knuckle. Just have to trim the corners when you take it over the tip of your finger. It really protected my skin, I had been going through alot of skin patch and it was very sore but with the tape my finger was perfect. It sticks very good and it is stretchy. It will make the fit tighter and I use Vise P/L inserts. I might try the bio skin too. My center sells small bags of vise tapes so it was nice not having to buy a roll just to try.
