I tried gluing my prosthetic on yesterday. I used Hollister spray but it's not working for me. I had to reapply the adhesive several times yesterday and three times so far today. I've made sure that everything is clean. I used the spray that ReelMagik sent. And I've been letting the adhesive cure anywhere from 3-10 minutes. It's driving me crazy! I've heard good things about BT-460, but it's so expensive.

So I've got a couple questions:
Is there an adhesive that works better than Hollister but is relatively cheap?
If BT-460 is gonna be my best bet, how long does 1 oz last you?
What is the LolaJake tape kit made out of?
Is there a way I could make my own?

One more thing. How do I keep the adhesive from getting everywhere? I've glued things together that should never be glued together...

I can't answer most of your questions, but I have a thought.  It may be that you need to build up a couple of layers before it adhears correctly?  Also, a tip worth trying that DJ told me - spread a thin layer of adheasive then use a blow dryer to get it warm, leave set for an hour and then repeat this process - after the second round it's supposed to adhear correctly. 

As far as it not getting everywhere ?  This was one of my first thoughts when you told me that you were to put adhesive all around the lip!

I'll have to try that. I've been using an awful lot of adhesive just the last two days.

It's mainly that I think it seeps out around the edges or something because I'll end up with my thigh glued to my prosthetic and stuff.

I have the RM 6" and can't get it to stick with adhesive either. 

A member here recommended to me that I should try the Lola Jake tape kit:

I haven't ordered it yet, but apparently it creates a good hold.

That's what I've heard. It's so expensive, though. Is there a cheaper alternative?

Aiden,

Which prosthetic?

Sorry, guess I should have mentioned that. It's the ReelMagik STP.

Not that I've heard of.

I emailed the guy from eroticreations because their site says adhesive coming soon. He said its a 2 part mix of skin safe silicone. .sounds like a littlebit of trouble but he said it will adhere most medical silicones to skin..so i will order that and trysome when they get it available.

Damn. Any idea exactly what it's made out of?

I decided to go ahead and order some BT-460. Hopefully that'll work well.

Let us know how it works for you, Erika.

What is dick tape?

Ignore that. It was a different take on duct tape. I was wrong for posting that. I apologize. I'm sorry.

No worries. It just took me bit to catch that. I wish that were a thing! Lol

Just wondering if you ordered the Extra thick?  I did not - I got the extra strength, but not the extra thick.  I find it's easier to get it where you want it than the Holister spray, but I don't see much difference in the adhesiveness.

Yeah, I got the extra thick. I don't like that Hollister is a spray. It's really difficult to work with. Does the Factor II stuff come with a brush?

Mine was not the extra thick, but yes it has a brush applicator.  They also shipped quickly.  Curious, have you ever tried RM's adhesive?  I know it's crazy expensive but DJ said he liked it best.  Do let me know what you think of the extra thick.  The regular thick extra strength is not what I would consider thin by any means.

I'm also having problems involving the adhesion. I just got my Reelmagik STP in the other day, and it works great....but only when I FIRST put it on and the adhesive holds it correctly in place. Within 5 minutes its peeling off already. I am also using the Hollister spray because I actually forgot to order the adhesive from Reelmagik when I ordered the STP, and didnt realize this until I got the email saying it was shipping! So i spent $50 getting this Hollister spray 2 day shipped, and it arrived the same day as the prosthetic. I'm very disappointed by it all, because i feel if something were to correctly hold the prosthetic in place it'd work properly. The hollister spray just isnt doing it.

Does anyone know if the adhesive sold by Reelmagik works properly? I'm considering ordering it to give it a try. The Hollister spray is also a giant pain in the ass because its a spray and gets everywhere.

If you are wanting a good tape to start with, try gorilla tape at home depot.  I think they may make in pink, but better than duct tape, and less harm on the skin if you are sensitive.  I used it for something else but it holds to the skin better than other tapes and glues if you shave and prep the site w alcohol.  If it has to be double sided, maybe glue 2 strips together in advance?  But the trick to make it adhear longer, or at least for me, I used one of those sewing things that looks like a spur and perferated a bunch of holes in it to allow the moisture to drain.  Otherwise it builds up and the tape falls off.  Also the tape can only be used once, your outer skin layer will clog the surface.

I used to work w alot of polymers and tape before this.  Hopefully this helps;)

Update:

Since reading this I decided to try this. I blow dried the adhesive that had remained on the prosthetic from my two prior attempts, then put on a fresh coat and blow dried it. I then left it to sit for an hour. After an hour, I then wiped the applicable areas of my body down with alcohol wipes then adhered the prosthetic. It seems to be holding much better, although I'm still having trouble with the cup area staying adhered, though, admittedly, I might not have put enough adhesive.
I think can manage that part not adhering if the rest stays put, I'm waiting for this 32oz of water I just chugged down to make me have to go so I can get some practice in. I'm thinking if you just give the balls area a "lift" when you go to pee, it will create a seal. I learned the hard way last night that you'll make a mess of yourself and the bathroom floor if a proper seal isnt created.  -_-

Do keep us posted Aero - I wondered if the balls could be placed manually as I am still not sold on adhesive in that area :)
