did you try attaching it to the screen before you washed it?
was it sticky when you peeled it off the package?
cuz it should stick like glue even after washing.

test it with your finger when it's dry.
that should tell you which is the sticky side.
i'm baffled as to why your brando doesnt stick anymore.
what did you use to clean it?

Don't use cloth to clean the sticky side. Use magic tape. You'll get more lint if you use cloth. @alfaromeo the shiny side should face you. Did you use soap. Its better if you just use running water. I've washed my Tungsten's brando twice already and it still sticks.

I have had a P800 for 4 months without a Brando and with the flip off and not scratched it once. If you treat the P800 with care you shouldn't need a screen protector.
I heard they are a nightmare to put on properly and don't wash and re-stick like it states on the packet.
Stay clear of them, and treat your investment right! |

i washed it with running water, how did u get your brandos??? i mean the packaging , is it really for the p800 or is the "p800 screen protector" handwritten only? i got mine with only the backing tape inside a plastic inside the main plastic with instructions that is the same with those for the tungsten, ipaq, and other PDA's.. And also the packaging was the same... i dont remember getting any sticky sides when i first got hold of it... |

It doesn't matter which side u apply the Brando on. It'll still stick.

Got mine similarly packaged with a glossy paper insert with \"brando workshop\" written on it and if i remember correctly it was also printed with \"for palm m500 series\" since it's for my Tungsten. you probably got a defective product if you didn't notice a stickyside. Got mine from mobile1 in parksquare makati for 400 php.

my brando is actually for the Zire, so i had to 'resize' it to fit
my p800. i just peeled off the backing and stuck it onto the screen.
had to redo it several times cuz i couldn't get rid of the bubbles. |

i got mine from games and gadgets, sm north edsa... how sticky was it the first time? do u have anything to peel out when u first used it? mine was just the backing .... mine was not sticky at all, because if it was, then it should have at least sticked to the plastic where it came from.... |
