Putting on screen protectors?

---

Is it possible to reuse one if you put it on bad? The last 2 I put on have had little peices of hair ir threads that cause a bubble Are they screwed at that point?

I'm fairly sure that you cant sorry.

It doesn't hurt to try...I would try using some scotch tape to pull off dust/hair and try it again if it were me. It's not like you've got anything to lose.

Wet protector you may have a shot. Dry one, I doubt it.

I think you mean the other way around. The dry ones are usually washable and reusable. They even tell you that on the package.

I put on a dry screen protector on today until my XO skin arrives. I ended up with tiny particles under my screen as well. I broke off pieces of scotch tape and applied it to the dirty areas and then smoothed over the screen with a credit card. It worked pretty well.

you can absolutely fix dry installs using the tape trick.



hell i've even transferred a dry protector from one phone to another with ZERO specs, bubbles, etc.

today i removed my steinheil and transferred it to my old droid X, then put a VZW clear protector in my nexus... neither have imperfections, dust, or bubbling.


the VZW clear protector is awesome by the way... buttery smooth and crystal clear.

i'm not sure on durability yet (resistance to scratches and such) because i just put it on today... really like it though, and the 3 pack was basically free with their accessory deals in store right now.

The clear Verizon screen protector seems to be similar in durability to the Boxwave ClearTouch Crystal screen protectors I've used on all of my previous phones, which were very durable. In comparison, the below screen protector scratched easily just from trying to rub out bubbles:
