1. Wipe your table or whatever with a moist towel
2. If there's dust on the brando already already, wash the brando with water.
3. Let it dry a bit; clean the P800 with a lint-free cloth with a little glass cleaner
4. apply the brando |

I did. Got it the second time. I used a long piece of 3M magic tape. Gets all the dust out. I also did the tape thing to the back of the Brando itself before sticking it. My P800 has been dust free ever since.  |

thats damn impressive! ive tried a million times, and everytime you're that much closer until you decide to try again for some dust spots underneath. then that just ends in chaos with even more dust spots! arrrggghhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

steps 1 to 3 that Rashkae suggested
then try this:
step 4 A: stick brando face down on scotch tape...
step 4 B: apply to screen slowly while peeling away the scotch tape...
(dust will stick to tape and not brando)
btw dont flame me cus of the shitty picture, it gets the idea across.

As mentioned, dust is everywhere so here are some good tips;
1,Always do it in the bathroom as damp places have less dust,(but NOT straight after shaking a towel around),
2,Keep the backing on as long as you can,
3,Remove your upper clothes as LOADS of dust/fibers are trapped in clothing,
4,Try to apply it aat the same time as removing the backing (in one action)
5,Use an anti static cloth to clean the phone (sold in record shops in the past for cleaning vinyl records).
Note, in number 3, for girls it may be better to remove ALL clothing, & i am available if you get in a muddle 
Reminder; milk, sugar, crisps, post letter. |

Could Parvski be the hidden Picasso among the P800 users? Will his artwork cause a storm on online sites? Will someone try to kill him to drastically raise the price of his paintings?
Find out tonight on CNN...
