Apparently another gotcha is "showering" & "runniness" & "refrigeration" considerations as witnessed by this description which advertises Dermabond by comparing the two cyanoacrylate glues as follows ... Dermabond: 2-octyl cyanoacrylate (8-carbon side-chain) Indermil: n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (4-carbon side-chain) Dermabond: Patient may shower immediately Indermil: Patient may not shower for 48 hours Dermabond: Contains plasticizers for flexible bond and high wound-closure strength Indermil: No plasticizers for a lower wound-closure strength Dermabond: High viscosity formulation Indermil: Lower viscosity formulation Dermabond: Might not require bandage Indermil: Not water-resistant, water-resistant bandage required for first 48 hours Dermabond: No refrigeration required, 2-year shelf life Indermil: Refrigeration required, if refrigerated, shelf life of 2 years, if not refrigerated, shelf life of 4 weeks Given just this information, I'd suspect Dermabond to be more usable in D/s situations, if it's usable at all. ... YMMV
