Bubbles beneath the screen protector-Invisible Shield
 
Hi, I recently got my invisible shield screen protector and followed all the steps. Then when I put it on, I found quite a lot of bubbles (6 or 7). Is this normal? If I leave the n800 out overnight will the bubles clear up? And how long should I wait to turn on my scratchless baby (who would scratch a baby?)

I've used the product many times on items like gpsr's, phones, pda's, etc. Sometimes it takes 2-3 days for the shield to be fully clear from bubbles. Directions say to wait 24 hrs. before using the device.

I'm using another brand of screen protector but bubbles always cleared up after a few days. The device could be used normally during this time.

I use the Invisible Shield and found that all the bubbles miraculously disappeared within a couple of days. I also found that the shield was too "grippy" on the stylus at first but that has cleared up, too.

I officially hate invisible shield. It turns out the bubble under the screen weren't air bubbles, they were liquid bubbles. So when I put the solution on the screen protector, some of it got stuck under the screen. Looks like I'm going to have to buy another screen protector! :mad:

Liquid bubbles, like air bubbles, will (read: should) disappear. But, yeah, you were supposed to squeegee it out. Liquid/air bubbles > dust bubbles.

Careful with the squeezing, it's very easy to squeeze too much. Symptom is that the digitizer stops working (=stylus not working), cure is to carefully rip the screen protector off (which will lift the screen enough to fix the squeezed digitizer).
