Over the years Leukospray has been synonymous with athletic taping. In recent years it has been reformulated as Tensospray but it retains its popularity with physios working in sport and in particular in rugby where it has also been used to add extra grip when sprayed on the hands. Its primary use however is to create a sticky protective barrier on the skin to improve the adhesiveness of sports tapes, in particular when used in hot, moist, wet or sweaty skin conditions.
