Re: *A $5.48* (Rain-X makes back cover Water/Hand Sanitizer/Wipe PROOF*

My cousin works at a Sprint store and was able to hook me up with 2 extra back covers to give this a shot. I read nearly 38 posts and cooked everything up in my head and really wanted to make this work. I really wanted it to look OEM- and def didn't want the dye start blemishing and spotting when using hand sanitizers and wipes. SO that's when I thought of Rain-X, I added about a cup of left over Rain-X from the garage and added to it to the Dye.

The Dye I picked was dark black and for those of you who don’t know what Rain-X looks like it has this light peachy orange color to it, but it did not effect the color of the dye and the back cover once it dried up.

I dropped couple of drops of water on the back cover and it just slipped right off. Used hand sanitizer and wipes, the colors did not distort or smear. I will post pictures up after work !

Thought i'd experiment, and to answer my own question sprint doesn't care what you do with the outside of the phone as long as it doesn't "physically/water damage the phone" unless if you picked up some ****ty *** color then yes you have physically damaged the phone
