Necessary materials and tools
Externally, the protective glass on a smartphone or phone resembles an ordinary film made of a polymer material. Outwardly, it is thin and flexible, but specially hardened in order to withstand shock and scratches. There are no traces of damage with a knife, scissors, keys.
Even if the blow is so strong that the glass suffers, it will not shatter into small and dangerous fragments, but will remain in a broken, but unified state.
It is clear that such protection is thicker than the film, since it consists of five components: an oleophobic coating, a protective, anti-reflective and restraining layers, as well as a silicone substrate. This protects the screen from scratches and prevents the formation of stains. The gadget becomes more voluminous and heavy, which absolutely does not affect the operation of the sensor.
Tools required:
- Actually the glass itself.
- A special spatula for smoothing or a regular plastic card.
- Napkin for cleaning. You can replace it with a cotton pad soaked in alcohol.
- Microfiber rag.
Sometimes scissors and stationery tape may be required. As a rule, a purchased set contains all the necessary materials in order to glue the glass on its own without problems.
Step-by-step instructions on how to stick protective glass
The main thing is to choose the right protection for the display of a particular gadget. Each protective screen is not universal, as it is available for a specific model.Of course, you can simply turn to specialists, buy a suitable glass from them and ask them to glue it (for an additional fee, of course). But there is an option to do it all yourself.
To phone
It’s easy to stick a protective glass on your phone. The main thing is that it lies evenly and completely coincides with the borders of the screen.
How to do it:
- Clean the room, wash your hands. The room should be light enough to see even the smallest specks of dust settling on the glass.
- Prepare the necessary tools.
- Degrease the screen with antistatic or alcohol. Then wipe dry.
- Disinfect hands, take glass (only by the edges so that fingerprints do not remain), remove the film.
- Align it and gently lower it onto the screen. It is immediately fixed thanks to a special adhesive coating.
If a speck of dust suddenly gets under the glass, it's not scary. It is necessary to carefully lift it and remove the dust with a piece of scotch tape.
On smartphone
Sequencing:
- Wash hands to prevent accidentally applying dirt to the screen.
- Remove the cover. Remove old coating, if any.
- Put the gadget on the table and wipe the screen with a special cloth.
- Remove the protective film from the glass and attach it to the screen, holding on both sides. At the same time, the edges of the protection should exactly match, and the cutouts should be compatible with the speaker or buttons.
- Gently lower it onto the screen and lock it with light movements, swiping your finger from top to bottom in the center.
If dust suddenly falls during protection, it must be removed with tape or a dust bag, and the whole process should be repeated again.
On tablet
In the case of the tablet, the procedure looks almost the same. You just need to be more careful, since the device is large, so it is difficult to calculate the ideal glass installation as accurately as possible.
To do this, there are the following tricks:
- Place the device on a clean surface. They say that it is best to do this in a kitchen or bathroom, because there is little dust in the air because of the high moisture content that can settle on an already prepared and cleaned screen.
- Attach the protective glass with the protective film side to the screen.
- Check all holes for matching.
- Take a piece of tape and stick one part of it on the glass (in the center), and the second on the back panel.
- Make sure again that the glass fits snugly. Correct if necessary.
- Stick tape on the right and left sides. Roughly speaking, it should be like a book with a front cover in the form of glass, and from the back - in the form of a tablet.
- After all preparations, clean the screen, remove the protective film from the backing and glue the glass. Scotch tape will help to do this without any difficulties, since everything has already been calculated in advance.
After the manipulations, it is necessary to peel off the adhesive tape strips and smooth the glass.
What to do to avoid bubbles
If bubbles form, they can be squeezed out without problems, gently smoothing the glass from the middle to the edges. When the gluing result satisfies the user, you can check the operation of the touch panel.
Fixing the glass of the screen of a phone, tablet or smartphone reliably protects your favorite devices from various kinds of damage.
