Answers:
lets say your using it on a finger. there should be a metal tool that you slip a lot of the gauze on first, bunching it up. next place the tool over the finger then hold one end of the gauze at the base of the finger. pull tube off of finger, twist 1/4 to 1/2 twist, push tool back on finger, dispensing more guaze. hold that new layer at base of finger and pull tool off again, twist and repeat untill you run out of gauze or have the desired thickness. to finish pull tube off finger so that there is 1 1/2 to 2 times the length of finger, cut gauze, make a cut about 2 inches long in the end. make sure you have a twist at tip of finger before you pull excess over finger, tie around wrist or secure with tape.
Insert your finger, arm, whatever into the gauze tube. Bring the tube out to the end of the extremity and twist, then run the tube back to the beginning and cut the tube or repeat as needed. Secure at the base with tape or if no tape is available, cut it a little long and use the leftover bit as a tie by splitting it in two.
