That depends on the situation and the rules in place. Some competitions do not allow wraps as they are usually held in place with metal tabs, which can cause injuries. For training on one's own it shouldn't be an issue, for sparring it could be.

Unless your karate school is strict.. you should be fine using a bandage wrap, if it is for health or injury related purposes. =] Yours in karate-do, Valerie, 1st Dan, Shitoryu Karate
Ace is a brand name. We often use brand names when asking for something and really do not pay much attention to it. For example, make a xerox copy for me, or give me a kleenex (for facial tissue), or Scotch Tape (instead of adhesive tape), or do you have a Band-Aid. Really these are brand names. It's the same for Ace Bandage. It is a brand name. It really is an elastic bandage.Ace is a brand name. We often use brand names when asking for something and really do not pay much attention to it.

Ordinary scotch tape is not archival. It contains acids that will degrade paper in a relatively short time. Scotch brand (R) may produce archival quality tape, but you won't normally find it at your local Walmart. Go to an arts and crafts store like Utrecht to find appropriate materials.
Using tape and a level, place tape on the areas you do not want the stripes to be, and go bananas on the wall. After it dries, remove the tape. Be sure to use the level, as it ensures the stripes are straight.
Yes, you can heal a wart with a Band-Aid, but not in the way you would think. If you use a traditional type of Band-Aid (with the pad in the center), do not place the pad over the wart, but cover the wart with the sticky part of the Band-Aid. More effective than a Band-Aid, however, is Scotch tape. Believe it or not if, you cover a wart with cellotape and leave it on for several days, the wart will drop off or dissolve. You may have noticed that if you ever leave a bandage on too long, the skin under the bandage goes white and loose. This is what happens to the wart, and then it disappears.
