Installed on ipad retina; looks like glue residue (not bubbles) between shield and screen. Will this self-correct?

use plenty of the liquid spray, then working out the bubbles, then after 24 hours the small ones go away.

Hello Linda, Yes our screen protector have a self-healing technology. Within 2-3 days any blemishes or bubbles will slowly dissapear. -iTechAccessory

When I first placed the shield, I saw what looked like white streaks/a white film, so I quickly removed it, sprayed the shield more thoroughly and then replaced it. That made nearly all the film disappear, but there was still a 2 x 2 inch area that looked concerning. That disappeared in about 36 hours. So if it is that type of residue/film, time may help.

Within a couple of days the screen was smooth and clear. It may need time for drying.Good luck!

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.

You should wait 24 hours from the time you installed the shield until you turn the ipad back on. By then, most of the bubbles should have disappeared. If you see anything other than bubbles than you probably want to remove the film and put it back on again. You shouldn't see much of a difference by having the shield on other than a few minor bubbles that aren't even noticeable. When I applied mine, I boiled water and brought the boiling pot to the table where I was going to apply the shield so the steam would reduce air dust as much as possible. Hope this helps!

Mine does the same thing. I believe that it is due to the gap between the iPad screen and the cover.

Hello Hambrighty, Thanks for your question! Our screen protectors do not leave any residue once removed. If there is anything on your screen, a nice buff from the enclosed Microfiber Cleaning Cloth should alleviate anything on there. :) If you have any more questions, feel free to let us know here or at support@ismooth.com Have a good day~ Brooke Customer Service iSmooth

The best way to tell is where your digitizer hooks into the iPad. Some don't use clips and they use the double sided tape which in my opinion isn't as good unless you plan on breaking the screen again...then its a cakewalk to remove again. I'd go with a different one than this if possible.

I believe it's caused by a slight gap between the case and the iPad screen. I haven't tried this yet, but I'm going to buy an iPad cling on screen protector which should fill the gap better and in theory the rainbows should go away. Hope this helps.

It should be absolutely clear. next time u put it on rub the air bubbles out every 15 minutes. Try to get a replacement for it. That should not have happened.

I would say yes, if you don't want to risk scratching it. I kept mine clean (so I thought) and it scratched my iPad. It's microscopic dust that does this - so you may think your screen or pen disk is clean, but it isn't.

Hasn't happened to mine...it's been on my iPad for 1.5 haven't changed it yet. I was thinking of moving to the anti-glare but as far as function, this cover has done its job.

I ran my ipad over (was in the winter guess it fell out of my bag) and bent back housing along with shattering my LCD and screen. I just bent the ipad back as best I could and the screen fits just fine! Just do a test fix before you use the adhesive and get it squared away!

I am not 100% sure of this but i can tell you the display looked great the UV glue was not visible and the screen was well centered... A Retina display is a brand name used by Apple for liquid crystal displays that have a pixel density high enough that the human eye is unable to discern individual pixels at a typical viewing distance. With that being said most displays are of that quality now days!

Good point, yes it is. I actually do not like the screen protector thing and I remove them.I have not had any problem with the screens on either of the two iPhones we own.

Mine is the HD clear as well as another answer. It's not as good as an actual anti-glare shield will be. I find that it's okay in bright light but it is much like the iPad's screen so will reflect some if you're trying to watch video next to a window. The reason I bought this one was because the anti glare protectors do tend to reduce resolution.

Make sure you clean the iPad's surface by using the mild alcohol based product or a damp cloth and keep it dry. Make sure there are no specks of dust before applying the protector 'cause this may get stuck when protector is applied also causing air pockets between the iPad's surface and protector. Don't inmediately remove the sticker cover with number 1 label from the protector to avoid exposing it into air or dust. Use a squeegee or a soft cloth in removing air pockets in circular motion before removing the number 2 plastic.

Hi... To be honest with you , i regret it . I have iPad mini retina with a monitor anti-scratch cover , the jot didn't work properly on the cover so i took the cover off , i used the jot directly on the monitor. The jot scratched my monitor that was last time i used itI prefer jot script it looks better and it doesn't have this metal head.My advice!!! Don't buy it

Uh oh um not sure i've never experienced this. But i cleaned my iPad screen as well as the screen protector thoroughly with a lens cleaning cloth before applying it to the device.

I popped my screen protector out because it caused a rainbow effect and then I installed a zag shield and it works great. I also trimmed the old screen protector and put it behind my N7 so that it wasn't exposed when the back stand is open.

I have a similar problem.. but it's not in the red portion. Mine looks like it's separating from the black edge that meets the screen edge at the bottom portion of the bezel. Amazon is sending out a replacement as we speak but I hope this isn't going to be in the replacement as well.
