Just a little FYI for anyone interested in ordering this product:
At some point during the installation, you have to spray both sides of the shield (one side is tacky, the other is not) with a water-based solution. The solution allows you to place the tacky side onto your touch and move it around with ease. However, to me, it was very easy to forget which side was the tacky one after I sprayed it, lol. While handling it way too much- I ended up dropping it onto my table. The table was not dirty by any means- but was not wiped off either.
Moral of the story- The tacky side is retardedly sensitive to micro hairs, dust, lint, and even the most miniscule debri you could imagine. Once these imperfections touch the tacky side of the shield- they are part of it forever and will infinitely be stuck between the shield and your phone (a very unappealing look). My 25 dollars was flushed down the toilet simply because the shield slipped out of my hand within the first 10 minutes of recieving it. The shield comes with a LIFETIME warranty. The warranty covers any and all flaws of the shield so long as it is ON YOUR DEVICE DOING IT'S JOB. Installation errors are not covered, and rightfully so. The person I spoke to over at shieldzone was more than accomodating and is sending me a ONE TIME courtesy replacement for free (I paid 3.99 shipping cost over the phone).
Sorry for the novel, the key points I was trying to point out are:
1) Wipe down EVERYTHING!! The screen on your phone, the table you're applying the shield on, your hands, etc. Make sure everything in site is clean, wiped down, and LINT FREE (including the towels or wipes). I cannot stress enough how bad a miniture hair fiber can ruin your day if it gets between the shield and your phone!!
2) Once applied, it really is as protective as advertised!! I look forward to my replacement and definitely endorse this product to anyone interested due to it's quality and the company's customer service.
hope this helped
