4/15 - an interesting discovery regarding tackiness

So, been a while since I posted, figured I'd start with a sort of guide to improve these things. A consistent issue people brought up, and one I thought wasn't exactly solvable, was the device could be somewhat rough to put on due to the silicone rubber being... you know, rubber. I discovered a solution around this while doing some experiments.

 

If you're having trouble putting on the device due to the tackiness of the rubber, try coating the packer (NOT the gripper) with a light coating of corn starch, rub it into the surface, then blow off the excess. And there you go. Smooth surface, no chafing, much, much easier to put on.
