Abstract

The invention is related to a foil- or film-like bandage consisting of a transparent continuous bandage foil which on the one side is covered with a transparent supporting foil and on the other side is provided with an adhesive layer and a removable cover layer thereupon, the supporting foil extending over said transparent continuous bandage foil at opposite edges and the cover layer having the same size as the adhesive layer, said cover layer having particularly formed preset cuts or preset breaking lines between two points at different edges, preferably opposite edges such that the cover layer is partitioned into two parts and, upon bending of the foil- or film-like bandage, there is produced an auxiliary pull-off means in the cover layer for the same.
