Good day! I will buy an iPhone 5. Can I put a FULL BODY screen protector on it, and put it in an Otterbox Armor Series case? Will it fit? Will the OB screen protector not touch the other screen protector on the iPhone?

If so, what full body (like the Otterbox 360) protector (thin) could you recommend?

Thanks!

Thanks for the answer! Is it dry or wet apply?

Any other recommendations?

Here is the protector I recommend:
Skinomi TechSkin - Apple iPhone 5 Screen Protector Ultra Clear Shield , Full Body Protective Skin , AT&T, Sprint, Verizon Wireless

Also buy the armor case on amazon because it is cheaper:
OtterBox Armor Series Waterproof Case for iPhone 5 - Neon

Are those wet application? I prefer dry application, because water might damage device. Could you recommend some DRY apply full body shield? Thanks!

The bodyguardz one I'd a gel or dry application.
The Skinomi, according to their website, said it has 1 bottle of solution so I am assuming it is a wet apication.

Yeah, skip the the whole shield thing all together.
Complete waste of time and money.

That is true. If it is going in an over sized and extremely protective case. What's the point of a full body screen protector? If you are going to take your iPhone out of the armor case, get a cheap case for home use.

The OB case might scratch the phone. Or am I being a paranoid.
