Will screen protector get rid of scratches
 
I ordered a Zagg screen protetor and was wondering if it will help hide some of the fine scratches. What has been your experience?

Of course that depends on whether you go back in time or forward in time...

Zagg screen protectors now shipped in deloreans.

Good luck finding a flux capacitor on e-bay though!

If you have scratches on the screen already, they will still be visible with a screen protector.

I would suggest you buy a replacement screen - cost about $40 USD give or take a little depending on your country - put a screen protector on as soon as you swap it out.

For fine scratches, a wet-apply protector (like Skinomi) may hide them. I have a few from initial usage (I was impatient when I got it), but can't see them through the protector. But then the Skinomi skin is a little bumpy to start with, so it may be hinding them just be being what it is.

The one thing I love about this brand is that if new scratches happen on the skin, the skin eventually (about 15 mins) re-bonds and melts back together. I'm not sure of how it works, but I have had a couple of instances now where I scratched the protector pretty bad and figured it was hosed, and an hour or so later it was like it never happened.

Well worth the investment IMHO.
