This is a packaged 'Slimline' Ladies Sanitary Napkin (Pad) They are cheap (compared to new cameras!) - Around $3 - $5 for a pack of 10.
This is how to unwrap the package, lifting the sticky tape
Then open the package to reveal the contents!
Peel the plastic backing from the Napkin (Pad) - (The white thing)
The back of the Napkin (Pad) is sticky - In our situation, we don't want sticky so fold the Napkin (Pad) in half, with the sticky side inwards.
This is how it should now look - no more sticky edges
Look for available space in the lower part of your housing to accommodate the Napkin (Pad), it may need folding again to fit. Try to fit 2 or 3 under the camera base-plate and corners of the camera.
Check to see that no parts of the Napkin (Pad) are going to interfere with 'O' Rings/Controls or Sealing Surfaces. Don't cause a leak by using them. Now you are prepared to absorb and contain small to moderate amounts of sea-water from sloshing around inside your camera housing. It is reported that these Sanitary Napkins (Pads) are capable of absorbing huge quantities of water.
One acquaintance has told me that the particular pads his wife uses, could save a sinking submarine !!!!
