Is there any way to clean the tacky side? There are little hairs under that are causing bubbles.

No, once you remove it will never go on the same way again. I know from personal experience. I advise living with the hairs.

Cleaning it will result in tranfering hairs from a cloth or fibers from a paper towel. If you scrub hard you can smudge and move around the tacky stuff and then.. You have two smooth sides.. But it won't adhear to anything.

I had the same thing happen and it was still a bit tacky too. I just let it cure a couple days longer until exposed it to water and it did go away without any issues.

Wipe it down with a used fabric softener sheet. Gets rid of any soap scum, water deposits, etc. Probably easier on the surface than toothpaste too.

The air bubble look goes away. No yellowing. You have to clean it intermittently, as it seems to attract dirt.

repaste - it should stick. I took a warm damp washcloth over it when I was done to smooth out the bubbles. god luck!

Suggest the usual to start, i.e., dish detergent and sponge. If NG, use Barkeepers Friend Soft Cleanser gently w/a sponge. OTT, probably best to replace it. U can apply some auto wax on the new one, should keep it clean for a while.

I would try some windex or some dish cleaner--- maybe even some eyeglass cleaner. Hope this helps!

I would suggest scraping it off with a razor blade and then using the Goof Off to remove the remaining stickiness. Good Luck.

There's a tinted green layer on the screen protector which yois removed the bubbles. but I found it was still uneven. So I took off the screen protector that comes which the case altogether. It's much better now...I figure as long as u have an actual screen protector on ur phones screen u should be good. Maybe I will write a review and post some pics.

I cleaned it before I put the salt and pepper in and I jut put soapy water in and shook it. I think you would need a little brush to get any build up off the sides.

I had to pour a little bit of water in with the bubbles to get it to work. You also have to be careful not to overfill it. I used regular bubble bath and just poured in a little water until it started to work better. I hope that helps some or fixes it for you.

I have the same issue. I will clean my with soap and hot water every couple of days. And about once a month, I will let it soak in hot soapy water and give it a good scrub to get the stains out. Most of it does come off but its hard to get it out of the tiny corners

I had to use the outside portion of the adhesive and throw out the middle section. Everytime I place the adhesive over the screen the film was visible as well as a multitude of bubbles, no matter how much care I used. Use tweezers to help position the sticker, working from one end down the side then other side and finally the last end. Use razor blade to start to remove paper backing.

The bubbles are actually indented and smooth so they are shiny which is also what the side edges are. It's like the matte finish of the top was laid over the shiny finish of the case. Although it is a sturdy case and I have no complaints, I am using another one. Would love to sell mine. Let me know if you are interested.

It took me a few tries. You must make sure everything is clean and lint-free, and you must use the card (or a credit card will do) to smooth it in place starting from one corner and working diagonally across. If any bubbles stay in place, start over. If you push hard enough, the bubbles will move to outer edge and dissipate.

Clean the surface with alcohol, tubbing, not the drinking kind. And ince you attach it hold it for a few seconds. It took a couple of times for me too.

Try running a vinegar/water solution through it and then the baking soda. That may take care of it.
