Saran wrap?

Question

How do you get saran wrap from sticking together but meke it stick onto plates and bowls(not the fancy press and seal kind)

Answer 1

There is a simple solution to that problem, just keep your saran wrap in the refridgerator, this stops it from sticking to itself but allows ti to stick to the containers you are using to cover with the wrap, I do this trick all the time it has worked for me for years, never failed yet ; I put my saran wrap just inside the refridgerator door.

Answer 2

Keeping it from sticking to itself is very difficult, but not impossible. Have the bowl or plate on the counter. Make sure the sides and rims are clean and dry to encourage sealing. Make sure the cutter is exposed and lined up properly (ie parallel to the wrap to prevent snags). Pull the Saran Wrap out of the dispenser (gently) from the center of the tube rather than the end. As it comes out, lay it in position gently over the plate or bowl. When it's the proper length, roll the box 90 degrees away from the container so the teeth grips the wrap, holding the wrap's end firmly in the other hand. Grasp the wrap at the edge and pull down and away to cut. Since the wrap is over the container, all you need to do is stretch it a bit and push the film against the sides or bottom. The stretch is actually what makes it hold. Good Luck!

Answer 3

it's a love hate relationship with me and plastic wrap. i have taken the whole role after trying to pull off a small piece to cover a plate
only to get wads of it all clinged together and threw it out the back door. but i have a solution, go to a sam's club or costco and get you a roll of commercial wrap, yes it's enough to last a year or two but it works so much better. i also get the commercial foil too, it is cheaper in the long run and may save yourself from busting a blood vessel in your brain. (and they are too heavy
to throw).

Answer 4

I have heard that you can store it in the fridge, and this will keep it from sticking to itself...Now I dont know about to a plate, other than to pull off enough so that it wills tick to itself.

Answer 5

My aunt always keeps hers in the fridge, and it works excellent. No sticking to itself, but sticking well to the things you want it to

Answer 6

Very carefully...not a lot of static cling in the air helps....let me know if you figure it out!

Answer 7

pull it out slow and attach it to whatever you are going to use it on then finish pulling it out and tear it off. I hate that stuff!

Answer 8

Maybe crumple it up first. But do it slowly so that you can un-crumple it.

Answer 9

Do what I do......give up and use aluminum foil.... :-)
