I purchased this screen protector and kind of nervous it will leave a residue when removed. Does anyone have any intell on this ?

The solution used in the initial application of the protector can be used to clean it after removal with the same microfiber cloth provided with the kit. Keep them both after installation.

I have used a similar one before. I found that after taking it off, all I had to do was wipe the screen with alcohol to clean away any residue. I love mine.

I have only removed one from my devices and there was no residue left on the glass that I had to worry about. A little Windex will clean them up quick I found with another cover brand that did leave residue. I assume the cleaner that came with the ArmorSuit would do it too. Very similar.

Did not have any problem like that. Goo gone? Though it seems you pulled off the tab, but not the "protective layer" it's attached too. The tabs don't stick to the actual screen protector. They attach to outer-layers on both sides of screen protector. I'm thinking you still have a layer to remove, though it may be difficult without the tab.

John, I took mine off because it wasn't sitting on the surface perfectly and removing it made tactile response work a tiny bit better. Still, I'm thinking of purchasing a protective screen since the screen always looks smudged.

I'm pretty sure you removed the tab, not the second layer. There shouldn't be any residue. There are three layers in all. Remove the back layer to put on tge phone. When it's sealed and all the bubbles are out, use the second tab to peel the entire front layer off, not just tge little white tab.

If you mean sticky residue, no. I haven't peeled off my screen since I applied it a few weeks ago but initially when I was applying it I had to peel it off about 4-5 time to adjust it correctly and there was no sticky residue on the screen of any kind whatsoever, will there be residue after months of use and then taking it off? I'm not sure but most likely not based on what I seen from peeling it off initially, it doesn't leave any sticky coating behind.

Yes, that happened to me too. I had to rub cooking oil on it to get the sticky stuff off of the screen protector.

I always take the screen protector off of all my electronics. I don't like the way it looks normally, but I haven't taken the screen protector off of this piece yet.

Whilst putting the protector on, I completely removed it once as the protector was not sitting rightly at the front corners. So right after I removed the first tab, I did remove the entire protector to align the corners, but never observed any residue left on the screen of my iPad air, then. Have not removed it thereafter, so do not know if any residue would be left over prolonged usage. The need to remove it does not arise at all.

That was a good idea. I've never seen any protective film like this before. Maybe they'll send them back to me instead of replacing them. The film was placed so perfectly on the screen (despite the bubbles) that it really seemed like it might be permanent.

Mine had a lot of small bubbles when i finished. And lines from the squeegee. After a couple of weeks they disappeared. With the exception of 2 very small ones. You can take it off and do it again. I read one of the ratings and the guy said it is not a problem removing, recleaning and does not ruin it at all. So go ahead and redo it.

I've installed many screen savers. Clean your screen gently with a lint free cloth. I think they provide one. Remove all smudges and make sure it's shpotless. Watch the video. When you lift the final shield (number 2) be careful not to lift up the actual screen protector. It may lift a little but no worries. I think the most IMPORTANT thing is to work from top down rather than paste the whole thing at once. Work from top down evenly and you won't get bubbles.

Try wiping it with hand sanitizer or something with alcohol in it. When I installed mine i used the dust removal stickers it kinda left residue on the screen. If that doesn't work then idk

Well i have a for instance for u. I had a brand new, shiny one installed on my tablet when my frisky kitten bit the corner of my tablet in play and left a bite mark on the shield. Stuff happens. I didn't replace it because it was at the edge of my screen and didn't impact my view, but was good to have the spare in case &#128512;

You know... I have not had this problem. I removed my screen protector from my "Note II" no problem when I had sold it. Have you tried contacting the company for support or checked their website for an FAQ? Maybe I'll try to remove the one from my "Nexus 5" just to make sure and just reapply the second one. I'll respond back if I do it this weekend, if it works no problem, you might have a defective one?

Hello Spricerator,ArmorSuit screen protectors come off leaving no residue. Simply just peel from one corner to another slowly and there will be no residue on your device. Thank you for your inquiry.

Of the reviews I read it didn't seem like anyone had a screen protector on their phone prior to getting the case or when they put the case on their phone. I think it caused a problem for me but I didn't want to take my screen protector off to see if the fit or bubbling changed.

I don't think so. I haven't had that issue, which was a major problem with my last screen protector. This is a pretty high quality screen protector. I can't say there will be no friction, but it's much smoother than any other screen protector I've used.
