My personal recipe is xeroform or adaptic (both non-stick petroleum gauzes, but the xeroform is antimicrobial) directly on the wound, then some gauze pads, followed by an ACE wrap. This allows for good moisture transfer and if you wrap the ACE properly it's far less likely to come off while riding.
I had that stuff all over my face and legs after my crash. It works really really well.
