TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) screen protectors are a popular choice for people looking to protect their smartphone or tablet screens from scratches and cracks. However, applying a screen protector can be a daunting task, especially if you have never done it before. In this article, we will go over the steps for applying a TPU screen protector to your device.
Step 1: Gather your materials
Before you start, you will need a few things:
- A TPU screen protector
- A microfiber cloth
- A dust removal sticker
- A squeegee or credit card
- Make sure you have all of these items before you start.
Step 2: Clean your screen
Use the microfiber cloth to clean your screen thoroughly. Make sure there is no dust, dirt, or fingerprints on the surface of the screen.
Step 3: Use the dust removal sticker
Take the dust removal sticker and use it to remove any remaining dust or debris from the screen. You may need to use more than one sticker to get all of the dust off.
Step 4: Peel off the backing
Peel the backing off of the TPU screen protector, being careful not to touch the adhesive side with your fingers.
Step 5: Align the protector
Carefully align the TPU screen protector with your device. Make sure it is centered and that the edges of the protector are aligned with the edges of your screen.
Step 6: Apply the protector
Once the protector is aligned, start at the top of the screen and use the squeegee or credit card to smooth the protector onto the screen. Work your way down, applying pressure as you go to ensure that the protector adheres to the screen.
Step 7: Remove any bubbles
If there are any bubbles or wrinkles in the protector, use the squeegee or credit card to smooth them out. Start at the center of the bubble and work your way out, using a firm, but gentle pressure.
Step 8: Let it settle
Once you have applied the protector, give it some time to settle. It may take a few hours for any remaining bubbles to disappear, and for the protector to fully adhere to the screen.
And that’s it! By following these simple steps, you can apply a TPU screen protector to your device and protect your screen from scratches and cracks. Remember to clean your screen and use the dust removal sticker to ensure that the protector adheres properly, and take your time when aligning and applying the protector to avoid any bubbles or wrinkles.
