I’m always running out of paste. Can we make it? What is the best answer? I hate this!

 Yes, that is duct tape and this is the pretty

version.

Hello junior

I have never used paste so I know nothing about it. You can use cheap micropore tape from the chemist which should be much easier to handle than the duct tape.

What are u trying to do there?  I can't see clearly from the photo..but that looks odd. Saran wrap taped over the stoma? Taped to some cotton? A cloth?  

Are u just trying to hold the flange down? 

They have c strip barrier extenders for that. No paste needed.

Hi Junior,

  I assume if you use a lot.........the issue is cost.  Looks like all the name brand stuff runs around $6 an ounce, so if that's too expensive your only alternative is to buy the Chinese stuff on Alibaba and hope for the best.  There it runs about half the price of the good stuff, but if you try it and find you can't remove your barrier later............don't blame me..........I can't read Chinese!  

  Here you go.........
