the front GuardFilm first.
Instructions:
|
1.
Add 1 drop of soap or shampoo into a container. Pour 1 ounce of room temperature water into container and stir if necessary.
Note:
There should not be any bubbles in your solution; this would
indicate too much soap was added.
|
|
|

|
|
|
3.

|
|
|
4.
Peel off the GuardFilm from the liner.
Note:

and button portion on the liner.
Place
the liner aside.
|
|
|
5.

|
|
|

drip off the GuardFilm.
|
|
|
7.
Place the GuardFilm on the product. Carefully center the GuardFilm.
Note:
The GuardFilm should be movable for positioning. If the GuardFilm

When installing the rear iPod GuardFilm, test the position by folding down the flaps. If the flaps are uneven then reposition the GuardFilm.
|

surface areas first. Continue until the entire surface has been
wiped.

If you notice any bubbles there may be foreign material (dust,
hair, lint, etc...) underneath. Remove the GuardFilm and submerge
it back into the solution. Feel the area that had the bubble,
many times they can be wiped off in the solution.

to protect it from foreign matter.
The

your fingers to rub the corners and small tabs down.

GuardFilm will become clear after the adhesive completely dries.

After
a few hours the GuardFilm will be set and ready for use.
Enjoy!
