Abstract

The invention disclosed is an adhesive strip for wrapping around the fingers to remove lint from garments or fabric. The strip has adhesive on one side only and is wrapped around the fingers with the adhesive side facing out. A looped end of the adhesive strip provides an anchor for removing a protective strip and for wrapping the free end of the adhesive strip around the fingers. The free end is adhered to the adhesive surface of the looped end. The strip is easily stored in a flat or folded configuration. Adhesive strips may be offered in stacks with no protective strips applied or the non-adhesive side of one adhesive strip acting as the protective strip for the adhesive side of the adjacent adhesive strip.
