iPhone 17 Pro Max Oleophobic Display Coating on 17 Pro Max

[FAILGATE]

1) Does applying/removing screen protectors ruin the Oleophobic coating on the display?

2) What is the best method to clean the display without ruining the Oleophobic coating? I don’t want to use the alcohol wipes cause I feel it will eat through the Oleophobic coating. So what would you recommend to use to clean the display without affecting the Oleophobic coating before applying a screen protector?

3) I have abit of dust in the top speaker hole anyone know what I should do to take the dust out of that little speaker hole?

1) Modern screen protectors shouldn't cause damage.
2) Yes, stay away from alcohol wipes. I just apply a screen protector straight out of the box... remove Apple white protector and straight on with the screen protector, no cleaning required.
3) Soft bristle brush or air?

1. No.
2. Just use water and a face cloth then dry with a micro fibre cloth.
3. Soft brush, compressed air or blu-tack (blu-tack being my personal favourite).

Yep. All my iPhones look brand new with zero lint in all the grills.
