beaker. The resolution of the deposited pattern (i.e. edge definition) is also highly dependant on the printing method employed in the process. We therefore propose that this water-assisted conformal printing process will work just as well with other high-throughput forms of printing, including flexography, rotogravure and inkjet printing [@Ng2019a; @R.H.Leach1993]. We also note that thin lines like those in Fig. \[panel3\]b run the risk of deformation during the dissolution phase due to the natural, uneven dissolution of the SF film in water at 25 $^{\circ}$C. As such, the prints in Fig. \[panel3\](a, b) are reliably achieved only with a precise 120 s dissolution time in our experimental setup.

Adhesive bandages are used daily to protect small wounds and adhere securely to the body and conform to every contortion of the skin. Similarly, nitrile gloves adapt and conform well to the human body. To date, research has gone into developing sensors that are fabricated on to bandages [@Yamada2011] and developing other forms of human motion detection devices on to gloves [@Zhao2017] for wearable applications. To demonstrate the ability of this strategy to conformally print on to flexible substrates, we therefore use nitrile gloves and bandages as target substrates. Using the method
