How long should you keep salicylic acid on for?



Ive got a couple warts on my hand, I bought some Compound W (salicylic acid) to help alleviate them but I can't find anywhere (bottle, box, internet) how long to leave the stuff on. It says twice a day for up to 12 weeks, but doesn't explain when to peel the stuff off. All I see are articles about how too long can irritate the skin and I'm not sure what to do

  1. You don’t take it off. Put it in the morning.Then, at night, take it off and wash your hands and put it again. When you take it off it should like taking away the top layer of the wart.
    Hope this helps!
