i'm trying to find an lcd protector that will not only protect from scratches, but also pressure applied to the screen. i'd like to have a hard, inflexible protector so people that point to the screen and wind up touching it, can't accidentaly kill a pixel. does anything like that exist? i've seen hard screens on some other laptop and lcd models, but not as an aftermarket product.
 
LCD screen protectors

There are a few that provide screen protectors.

NuShield (http://www.nushield.com) is one (they appear to have ones specifically for various Apple products).

EXiM also offers protection for some iMac models (http://stores.ebay.com/PDA-Now-EXiM-STORE)

And RadTech has a cover for iMacs that helps clean and protect at the same time (http://www.radtech.us/Products/ScreensavRziMac.aspx).

However, I just got my iMac recently and I have no experience with any of these products (if anyone does, please post your experiences).

HTH,

ExpertShield LCD Screen Protector

ExpertShield Crystal Clear Protective Film (ES-CCPF) consists of 1) a scratch-resistant PET layer and 2) a residue-free Silicone Gel Solution layer. The Silicone Gel Solution uses a patented formula that creates an air vacuum between the bonded substrate (PET film) and any smooth surface.
The successful result of a glass-like finish is dependent on the consistency of the Silicone Gel Solution and its even distribution against the substrate. The process of bonding the Silicone Gel Solution to the PET is inherently difficult and requires a dust-free environment and precision machinery. There are two main processing plants that supply ExpertShield with this process – both located in Japan and both adhering to the strictest quality standards.

I have one question How to do a smooth installation of screen protector?
 
Smooth installation of screen protector
Eliminating air bubbles is easy, just using a standard credit card to push the air bubbles out.
For removing dust, one solution is to use a can of condensed air to blow dust away from your device’s screen. Another solution is turn on the hot water in your bathroom and allow it to steam up the room. Dust particles adhere to the steam rather than your handheld's screen, creating a perfect environment for applying a screen protector
If you found it still fail, then maybe the quality of screen protector

Next time you can try WriteShield or ExpertShield screen protector, their overall quality are good compare to others in my past experience.

This is a specific question for those who have tried several screen protectors. What have you found to be the best? And why?
