    Default Screen protector trapped moisture!

    used the shower method to put on the screen protector, everything went great except some trapped moisture that's distorting the screen.

    will it dry by itself?
    should i put the phone in rice?



    background:
    I ordered the SGP ultra oleophobic and it's great!
    Of course the first time I put it I messed up and it got fingerprints and lint on it. But the screen was crystal clear.
    The second time I turned on the shower and steamed up the bathroom to minimize dust. I got the 2nd protector on after a lot of repositioning it's finally bubble free and in the correct place!

    But... since I used the shower method there is definitely some moisture trapped underneath the protector and now the screen is getting distorted.

    it will dry out over a few days. to speed it up try to use a credit card and gently work your way from the center of the screen to the outer edge.

    or put your phone somewhere warm, not hot. top of a TV, PC tower etc.
    60% of the time, it works every time.
