3 Pack of Premium Crystal Clear Screen Protectors

Works great if you know how to apply them
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
After reading all the comments both positive and negative I decided to give these a try.

They are really very good and I got my very first one to apply flawlessly.

Here is what I did:

Went into a very still room

Cleaned the iPad starting with their supplied mini (P.S. Very mini- almost microscopic, hard to not have your finger slip off on it) cleaning cloth.

Took on of my larger new micro-fiber cloth and polished the surface until it was diamond clear with no visible dust at all.

Used a can of compressed air to clear off the surface again and repeated the above

Removed 1/2 of the backing (the sticky side) and then used scissors to cut off the part that was peeled away, the reason this is important is that your fingers or anything ‘CANNOT’ touch any part of the back side or you will destroy the adhesive on that part and you will get a blister. This is very common on the ends where you try to hold it. You can’t! So only hold it on the section that is still attached to the backing. The reason I cut off 1/2 of it is that you ‘roll’ the protector from the bottom up using a credit card to squeeze out the air as you lay it down. If the entire backing plastic was still on it would be a royal pain to keep it from coming back at you and touching the iPad surface.

Align the product perfectly over the selector button hole and then align it to the bottom of the screen so when it rolls out it will be even along the sides.

Using a credit card (don’t worry a about covering the credit card, because there is another layer of plastic at the top you have to peel off later, so scratching that is a non-issue) gently roll the film onto the screen. If there are no bubbles then keep rolling. If you see a bubble in the middle just peel it back off to the bubble and use the credit card to get the bubble out and keep rolling. If there are bubbles anywhere within 1/4 inch of the edges, don’t worry. Those will come right out as you can just use your finger to get them to pop out the sides.

Keep looking at the screen and if you see any dust had settled use the air can to blow it off. Be warned. Some look like dust is on the screen but it’s actually on top of the layer that’s facing you and that’s OK. That part gets peeled off.

When you get to the part that you haven’t cut off yet, then keep rolling and peeling slowly making sure that you get the bubbles out.

Then you take the rest off, lay the rest of the film on the pad and use your finger or CC to get the air out of the edges.

NOW “IMPORTANT”: This is the step that’s the pain. Now that you’ve got it perfect, time to peel off the top layer. But as the adhesive is not permanent, as you start peeling from the corner you can start to pull up the protector from the glass causing more bubbles.

So start peeling from the corner and use (ONLY YOUR FINGER with the mini-cloth) to push the protector back onto the pad. Then peel (not up) but sideways to get the entire bottom exposed and sealed. Once you do that then peeling off the rest is easy because you are not peeling off from an edge. Peel at a 25 degree angle. You might get some of the protector raised at the side edges again but no worries, you just push it back down and squeeze out the air with your finger as above.

Then you get to top and you’re done.

As it’s just a piece of film, go round the entire edge to make sure it has firm contact. Then I really commend something like the Schoshe iPad silicone case. It will wrap round the iPad and it’s edges completely cover the edges of the screen protector making it impossible for you (or anything) to get under the protector and lift it off.

And viola, perfect, looks just like the original screen and goodbye yucky finger prints smudges.
