I purchased these protectors twice and they are excellent. The shipping takes about 2 weeks. No water! These have silicone adhesive and they are reusable. Very similar to the protectors that Sprint included with new TP2's.

That overpriced & overhyped Invishield uses water.

The ones that use water are very durable, scratch resistant, and are great for non-touchscreen devices.

I would think that also being that it is water, but after all the yr of putting on protectors, my last one I tried it with water....now I did not drown the protector just had a lite coat...it is just like tinting a car window....makes it very very easy to remove air/dirt bubbles, then just let it dry in place. It was the best one applied to date.

I can't speak for all water-applied protectors, but the ones I use are awesome. Like another poster mentioned, you only use a small amount of water, and applying, positioning, and removing air bubbles are amazingly simple & exact.

I remove the battery & apply tape over the water-detector tape (Use a strong tape like packing tape cut to size & applied carefully so as NOT to touch the water-detector surface.) I can apply a screen protector in about 15 seconds perfectly this way. You just have to be patient for it to set up, which only takes about 30 minutes.

I use soapy water all the time. I just make sure I have the cover on when I do it and use a small medicine syringe thing (the ones you get when you go to the RX and you get liquid medicine.) so that I can control the amount of water that I put on it. This has worked for me for years and no water damage. I'd sure like to try those protects b/c the one I have now is a POS.
