This sounds like a total scam. Any protector worth their salt will stop sand, All the objects they test with don't scratch the regular naked glass.

Snake oil, too good to be true, springs to mind.
Anyone done a proper test yet out of interest?

I thought I'd throw in my two-cents on this. This product may seem to good to be true, and it could be, that doesn't mean the technology isn't available.
You see, in my quest for the ultimate car wax/protectant, I came across a relatively new technology/application. Permanent and semi permanent coatings to protect the clear coat on modern vehicles. I am not speaking of your typical polymer based waxes.
One of the first was a product in Japan known as "G'zox real glass coating". If you've been to a new car dealership, you may have seen adverts for "Simonize glass coat".
Simonize should conjure negative thoughts to any car buff worth his weight, but that doesn't mean their new glass coat isn't legit. It uses a similar product/process to G'zox.
Heres a few links to these products
(in no way am I connected to any of them)

http://optimumcarcare.com/ocoat1.php?li=4 (this site may not look as nice as some e-tailers, but his products are considered top-tier in the detailing communities.
I suppose what I am getting at, is that there are permanent liquid applied products, which are designed to add a hardened, clear, protective, and most importantly, permanent coat/layer
You'll find plenty of happy customer reviews for opticoat: google if youre interested.
I do however doubt Dynaflo is using a product in this category; probably just a clear polymer protectant.

Haha you watch linus too
Haha you watch linus too
haha yes! actually it was Linus led me to this product. too bad i'm having a hard time to order it online coz of shipping costs.
I ended up buying some from Dynatron, the makers of cooling assemblies. It appears that Hard-Shield is the same product as Liquid-Armor as stated on Liquid Armors site.
I used 3 coats and so far so good. I've had it on for about a week now and usually keep my phone in my pocket or jacket pocket. I'm not going to purposely try to scratch my screen but if something happens I'll certainly update my findings to this thread.

I love his show was just about to link lol best PC review channel ever and he is so honest. Refreshing to see a channel that is doing well but not a sell out.

so after watching the Linus video I googled more about this armor and this was the #1 result for the liquid armor lol.
You wouldn't be able to "scrape" it off. It's a micro coating, barely noticeable. I'm betting that if you did enough damage to it, the screen would damage as well. So, if you didn't want it on, just wait a few months and the coating would wear off...similar to car wax.
I think the whole point is there's "nothing" to take off. It's like you won't want to scrape off the paint on the phone. And it wears off over time (that's why they claim you have to reapply every few months)
I'm skeptical to how effective it is.

I've tried 3 different wet apply and one dry screen protector and I've been incredibly unhappy with how they looked and felt. Really the only reason I've even went for a protector is to cover up a hairline scratch I got from having my phone and sunglasses in the same pocket. I'm hoping this last product will give me the clarity of a naked screen while hopefully filling in this scratch!
Been using my hard shield on the phone for a little over a week now and am very satisfied with it still. I did the application twice (applied, waited 24 hours, buffed out streaks, twice) and it still looks great. That motorcycle video actually puts my mind to rest as I was skeptical about it at first myself. Taking pictures of how the hard shield looks on the phone is redundant because it looks just like the naked screen.
I'm curious how many coatings you'd get out of one bottle. I love the concept (if it proves to work over an extended test). But if it only lasted a 6 months or a year, I wonder if I could stomach the cost.

4Here is a little bit of an update. Somebody earlier in this thread posted a video of a guy dragged a phone covered with this on a motorcycle. I don't know how many coats or how much solution he used, but this stuff does NOT peel like the video.
I've got a dummy device from work, it still has plastic on it so it should NOT have any scratches or scuff marks. It will take me a few days to do a proper test though.
I will try. Today at work I got fed up with not being able to peel the solution with my fingernail. I took an exacto knife to my bold 9900. (which in hindsight wasn't a great idea) I had to press really hard to even get a scratch. I finally got one. The "screen protector" DID NOT PEEL. My screen just scratched. Now theres no way to tell if the dynaflo thing worked, but as of now all I can say is my screen is scratched. I will try to reapply and see if the scratch gets "filled in"
I've been trying. I tried my iPad and my bold 9900. It doesn't peel
Thats what Im thinking it is. It looks like the regular screen, feels like the regular screen. Thats IT! It probably is just a screen polish of some sort. What a genius idea, can't believe I didnt think of it first.
Final update before actual testing: Bottom line is screens look great without a screen protector. My bold 9900 for the last two days has been looking great, so imagine what my nexus will look like. I bought my nexus outright for 750 before it was released on any carrier, so obviously even a little nick will hurt, but whats the point of having such a great screen for it to be degraded by a screen protector.
I need someone with the time and the resources to do a proper controlled test on this stuff, I will try to do one on my own but would appreciate if someone can jump in as well.
I've sprayed this stuff the following amount : 4-5 sprays on my iPad, 4 on my bold 9900. And the bottle feels like its losing weight quick.
I will keep the updates going. You can keep the questions coming, but by the end of this I want each of you to donate a dollar to me so I can recoup my 20 bucks I spent on this bs. Lol kidding.3http://liquiddefender.com/H7-for-all-Handheld-Gaming-Devices-LD003.htm

Super Hardness up to 7H2A quick update. I haven't applied this t my nexus yet, but I applied it to my Bold 9900 and my iPad.
When I put it on the bold 9900, it dried very quickly. Feels and looks just like the real glass of the phone. Feels like nothing is there. I then put it on my iPad and deliberatley put on an excess amount. I wanted to feel what was there and how it acted. After about 30 minutes I tried peeling it off with my fingernail but it just felt like normal glass. Nothing was peeling. I need it to leave it on longer for a real test.
For people that are skeptic about this product and/or ocd about this screen = Actually having the product will not ease your paranoia. Im still very skeptical at how this can protect anything. It smells, looks and feels just like rubbing alcohol being applied. Time will tell though.2Well I got the armor today and applied 2 coatings of it to my phone with 30 minutes drying periods in between. Doesn't seem to have done anything other than smudge easier, and the tiny hairline scratch is still there, though I think it's less visible. Screen feels about the same as naked, although it may be a tad less smooth. Overall, not super satisfied but not entirely disappointed, either. I'm done with screen protectors and I'm just gonna leave this on.2Bit of an update.. I had this applied a few weeks back. ZERO scratches still. No micro-scratches, nothing. I've dropped the phone a few times but the screen is holding up like a champ. I don't know if it's the coating or the actual glass Samsung used but I'm happy with the results.
Those of you that think your screen protector basically feels like naked glass... you need to take it off and feel the difference. NOTHING comes close to the feel of naked glass
