Why in the world are any of you using alcohol wipes for cleaning wounds?

They're not designed for that purpose, they burn, are painful on an open wound, can destroy or damage living tissue.

Use Benzalkonium Chloride wipes, they cost about 3 bucks for a hundred of them from any number of mailorder/website sources. They're usually larger than any alcohol wipe, they don't sting at all and they don't affect living tissue. Soap and water are even better or diluted iodine/betadine or some of the commercially available "wound washes" but if you're gonna carry something small in a FAK, do yourself a favor and get BZK wipes and leave the alcohol alone.

Alcohol wipes are meant to be used to disinfect unbroken skin prior to giving an injection, taking a blood sample or getting a blood glucose level.

As for making bandaids stick, after you clean the wound use some basic iodine or betadine either a swab or using a gauze pad or cotton ball and wipe it where you're going to put the bandaid, LET IT DRY, the adhesive will stick about a thousand percent better to skin treated with either iodine or betadine first.
