You might want to do some more research on your approach. According to what I've seen you still need to apply direct pressure after using Quikclot. Here's the USMC traing hand out for the new FAK. http://www.tecom.usmc.mil/gtb/TPS/MedicalProgramsO/Utilization_of_the_IFAK_Student_Handout.pdf

Several sites that sell the stuff also specifically state "....when used in conjunction with the Cinch-Tight* bandage...". It's not an apply and forget product. Although the company website leaves you with that impression, the instructions say otherwise.

Also, there seems to be a few serious warnings concerning tissue damage and burns if it gets applied outside of the wound area. Just something else to be aware of, you don't want to get sued for giving a guy a 2d degree burn while you saved his life <img src="images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />
