Are screen protectors reusable?

Basically, has anyone used the stock screen protector more than once...?? I have to return my phone for warranty issues and I hear they don't give'm back with screen protectors on so I'm taking mine off before hand if it's reusable... Thanks...

Some are but the chances of it going back on as good as it was when you got it are pretty slim.

Depends on which one it is as well. I didn't have as good of luck with Boxwave products, but Zagg seems to be able to be re-used. I'm like Wesley, never as good as the first time use though.

Dooh, I just bought some Boxwave protectors.
I thought they advertise you can re-use them?

Most plastic like screen protectors are reusable.
You simply wash them in warm water and put them back on.

The film type screen protectors are junk in my opinion and they are not really reusable.

i love my boxwave screen protectors, but I don't tend to reapply them. Would rather just buy another and get a nice clean install.

I bought one aftermarket screen protector for my girls TP2 and it totally sucked ass... didn't align well, looked like it was for a diff TP2 I think... That's why I'm tryna hold onto mine instead of replacing it... Also, sprint said they don't just hand them out when I called customer service..
