@Keyone,
I used the shieldzone for my 6700. There's no 'adhesive' as in glue. I know this because I removed mine before I sent the unit back to Sprint / Assurion, intending to reuse it. When you peel it off, which can be done with slow and firm pressure, there's no strings of adhesive or residue left behind. It's pretty amazing that it sticks (bonds) as well as it does and still remains removable.
[BTW, I destroyed the SZ by removing it, so I couldn't reuse it!]
That being said, I'm at a loss to explain how the SZ actually sticks. I'm assuming it is some sort of electrostatic attraction, but I could be way off. It takes 1-2 days for this attraction to develop as the liquid evaporates.
But you _can_ peel it off without destroying your unit. Not that you'll need to. They are indestructible, won't come off until you take them off (mine stuck for 12 mos until the phone died) and worth the $$!
