I have received my Gentian violet today but unhelpfully there aren't any instructions on the bottle. How much should I spray?

Thank you in advance

just enough to cover the wound. reapply if blood shows again. hope this helps

We gave it a go, didn't end up covered in it too much!!!

When I use purple spray i wear gloves. The sort that you get at petrol stations. Oh and always make sure you are standing so any breeze, let alone wind is blowing away from you!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nail varnish remover will take it off your skin.  My husband is a bit generous with the spray and I almost always end up with purple splashes on my hands!
