BTW, PS Anti-Glare HD still looks grainy and I don't like it either.

Yes the anti glares will always look a bit grainy, even the SGP anti glares do. I don't mind the trade off for not having finger prints to wipe off every few hours.

Nice job! The area around my apple logo has cleared up quite a bit now, there are just a few little dots here and there still. Looks much better like yours.
 
Just got mine today. The front piece is terrible. It isn't perfectly smooth and clear so it can distort the screen's light a bit. It also feels horrid to swipe and play games on. I left my front piece off.

The back piece is the same deal material, of course, but I left mine on for now. Once my cases come in, you can bet that I'm probably going to take it off. It will serve as temporary protection for now.
 
Mine just came in, how am I supposed to apply it? I have some solution left from my invisible shield. Should I use that?

That's what I used. I just sprayed it on lightly. A few others in this thread also mentioned using the leftover solution. It works just as good as water and soap.

I have very little solution left.. Like half of 1/4.. If that's not enough I shall use water and soap?

That's more than enough for both pieces. I think I only sprayed the film three times. I only used the back piece because I already had a SGP anti glare on the front.

Thanks for the replies.. I hope the orange peel is lower profile than the invisible shield, that's the main reason I took it off my 3GS..
 
If you want it to dry quicker play N.O.V.A or any other 3D intensive game. It will heat up the back really good! :D

Those little air bubbles go away a lot quicker this way.
 
Too much soap or not enough water. Many of the bubbles will go away in a few days but not all. You probably need to redo it. Use much less soap or no soap!! Squeege out the excess water! Take it off and try again.

I used the invisible shield thing..
 
@freemini: Remove the film and wipe off your iPhone 4 with a wet paper towel.

Turn on your faucet and soak the screen protector in water only (NO SOAP)

After it's all wet align it on the iPhone and push out the bubbles with a credit card gently. There shouldn't be any white marks under the skin.

After about 10min of drying you will see air bubbles under, gently remove them by using a credit card again and slowly move them to the outer edges of the film. Don't worry you don't have to get them all, they will go away.

it's still the same.. and this time it was full of water when I applied it
 
Pushing water out from underneath with a credit card, wont that push water into the cracks on the side of the iphone?
 
Weird. Try taking it off again and cleaning the film with soap and water than reapply one more time with just water.

Maybe you got a bad film... :(

well, I figured out a way to apply it better.(much better).



I used the invisible shield squeegee. while applying it. So the bubbles have mostly disappeared that way. Will the remaining white things go away over night?

Much better. The rest of that will clear up on it's own.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but the invisible shield was easier to apply... The front part of that didn't have any of those small, white things.. It just had very few bubbles, which I easily cleaned.I finally got this after 4 tries. I'm actually surprised it still sticks well.
 
Mine finally arrived, but a little too late. I already applied SGP Oleo and it's too perfect to take off. I don't want to risk the chance of getting dust on the underside which happened with the first shield. Guess I'll just keep it as backup. They are probably making a lot of money from this since they only use a standard envelope as "packaging".
 
My iPhone just displayed the "Temperature" thing.. I had to turn it off. It better not be water damage, since I'm gonna be really pissed.(it was not even warm)
