Zagg, Bodyguardz and BSE

I know there have been many threads about these full body skins and Mods if you think this is redundant please remove. I have now tried invisable shields, bodyguardz and the most recently best skins ever. In this post I will refer to these as IS, BG and BSE as most of you already know, the first thing I will address is the out of sight price that IS and BG charge for these products and how BSE can charge so much less. When you order IS or BG you get a small bottle of "solution" with the covers which is a mixture of baby shampoo and water and when you order the BSE they just tell you how to mix up your own solution. Now in using all three of these companies products and testing each of them over a 30 day period I can most deffenitly say that the BSE is the best product. I have stayed away from the BSE at one point because of the low price I figured that they must not be as good, I can now tell you they are the same material as the others at almost a third the price. the last sets of BG and IS I installed on my TP both had an issue of the corners on the back cover piece lifting up over a week or so from being slid in and out of my pocket, I have been using the BSE for about three weeks now and have not had this problem and the BSE were easier to install IMO. I think one of the reasons the BSE were easier to put on was due to the fact that I mixed my own solution. I had one of the little spray bottles from my last BG set so I took the sprayer head off and dipped the stem the draws the solution up to the sprayer head in dawn dish washing liquid then filled the little bottle with filtered water and screwed the top back on and shook it up to mix the dawn with the water. The result I got I believe from the dawn was I was able to after applying the mixture to the sticky side of the BSE slide the BSE around to position it better with light pressure then apply a little more pressure with my fingers to make it stick and using a squeegee to work out the bubbles and solution. I can tell you from experience with IS and BG these skins went on so much clearer than the others did it looked the others did after drying for two or three days. The price factor is also one of the biggest issues I have with IS and BG, are we paying the extra money for the little spray bottle or what? I am now a total convert to BSE and will be using these for every device I own from now on. Sorry for the long post.

i heard bse is thinner, but still good.
bodyguardz gives u two full kits.
ghost armor and invisible shield give you one for the same price as bg.
i got my bodyguardz for 12 bucks (2 kits) during one of their half off sales.

Thanks for the info but you really should split your post into separate paragraphs. It is very difficult to read.

If I could get these half off, I would jump on it. As it stands I have better thigns (like food) to spend money on.

PS. who the hell is BSE?

I dont assume you got it from the Bombay Stock Exchange.

most people will buy zagg and other because its $24.99 thinking its quality shields and others are knockoffs but its all same stuff.

Yep, I found that out when my brother in law who has a sign and decal business showed me a roll of material that I would bet money is the same stuff that these companies use. I have been fooling around with his computer program that controlls the patteren cutter/plotter that cuts the decals to try to make my own skins.
