Well after many, many years of using handheld devices and applying more screen protectors than I can count I can now apply screen protectors very easily and effectively using these few tips:
First, dry fit it as best you with the film still on., so you know how to position it on the phone.
Turning the shower on and letting the steam kill the dust is a good idea, if dust is a problem.
Be sure the screen is very clean, then cover it for a few seconds while you ready the protector. This will keep dust from settling on it.
When you begin to apply it peel the film off slowly as you apply it from side to side. Applying from side to side gives you a much longer edge to be sure it is on straight. Often when applying from top to bottom you find it is a bit out of line once you reach the bottom. NEVER use an utility knife to trim it. NEVER.
Peel the film off a little at a time as you apply it across the screen. Never turn the device over will applying it. This can allow dust to settle between the screen and the protector.
Once it is on, if there are any bubbles use a credit card or anything with a solid straight edge and no sharp corners to push bubbles to the edge.
If you do get dust under it, very carefully lift a corner of the protector and use a piece of regular Scotch tape to remove it by touching the underside of the protector, since the dust is usually stuck to it not the screen. However it can be on the screen as well.
If you do a really bad job of it ot there is a lot of dust you can take it off and reapply it. If you do take it off, get some packing tape or very wide tape, usually two pieces of packing tape stuck together, overlapping, are wide enough. Place the screen protector, face up on the tape and pad it down well being sure the tape is adhering to the whole protector. This will remove any dust and keep it clean as you reapply it. then pull the tape back slowly and apply it as you did before.
Some screen protectors are washable, but I have to say I have never seen one look anywhere near acceptable after being washed.
Good luck!
BTW.....The screen protector that comes with it is clear, not anti-glare. I dislike clear ones. I put it on my TP2 anyway, till I could get an anti-glare one. After the first day I took it off.....a day later the screen got a big ugly scratch on it!! The funny thing is, the next day it began acting weird so I swapped it for a new one. I'm back to using the included screen protector.
