Here, I got a Martin Fields P900 screen portector and it was the hardest thing to fit! Not that it was difficult to press it into place, but every bit of dust in the world stuck to it the minute I removed the sticky cover and the bist of dust then caused many lumps, bumps and air bubbles when pressed on to the screen. I washed it, but how do you then dry it without using some sort of cloth? I let it air dry which then just smeared.
So not THAT impressed. Can see the advatage and maybe its not a bad idea but for £7 odd and a load of bits of dust... not that pleased. |

I had a look at the link at ebay, yes I can see the Brando screen protector for p900. What about p910i? I mean is it the same screen size between them?
Many Thanks! |

Yes same for P910i. Bought 4 (like to have spares in ) & fitted first one perfect. I have had plenty of practice over the years. MFOP much harder to get on perfect compared to a Brando which is why I went back to the Brando Ultra Clear. Best I've used yet.

I had trouble after washing it with water (Brando ultra clear), but I tried rubbing it with alcohol and it seems ok - not perfect, but not bad - advice: try to get it right the first time, washing will inevitably dirty it a bit (smears, water marks etc)
I hair dried it (from far away, not to melt it) and it dries pretty much instantly, no marks.
I found that it will always attract dust - so:
1. alcohol clean the screen with soft cloth.
2. clean/unwrap protector.
3. use masking tape or ideally "Post-it" "cover up and labelling tape" (I work in an office, so it's easy to find - it's like cellotape but made of post-it paper, so only tacky, not heavily sticky, although I guess masking tape will also do the job. I don't recommend cellotape - too sticky) in longish strips and cover the screen with a couple of strips, press down gently to pick up all dust and keep screen covered until you're ready.
4. do the same to the protector - put couple of strips of tape over the protector to suck up all the dust/fibres.
5. get ready, breath deep and remove the strips from the screen, looking for any dust.
6. quickly as possible, remove tape from protector and align it over the phone screen. you can take your reasonable time aligning it once it's near the screen, as hopefully not much dust should get under the cover if you're quick.
7. Align and use your thumbs or soft cloth to push out air bubbles. Don't use a credit card or card as it will scratch the protector inevitably.
8. once finished, wipe off protector with alcohol and be happy.
-it's probably not full proof, but it's the best method i've got so far! the post-it tape definitely helps get all the gunk off.
Feedback?

sorry to cut ur mssg but some ppl read esato thru wap :-* :-l :-[
i copy herebelow one of my previous posts on how to dry a Martins' screen/protector. I believe it should work and on Brando ultra clear
MFSP are fully washable. U can use any mild soap. Though the difficult part is to dry it koz if u place it anywhere it can get dust on the sticky part very easy. T4 I recommend after wash it, to have a piece of printer paper (dot matrix printer) and to let it dry with the sticky part facing the paper.

Perhaps the use of a hair dryer would work?

no way
just use the printer paper
also the maker of brando scr/prtr suggests the procedure to be done in the bathroom after leaving warm water (not hot water) running for few minutes, "forcing" the dust go down |

Does it not pick up bits from the paper?
Why no hair dryer?

matrix printer paper is "bitsless"
the air from the hairdryer swings the dust around, although u don't actually see it and what u want when placing the screen protector is the dust to the ground

baazee.com (India) had some pretty good screen protectors but they were for the palm T but i guess you can cut it to size.
