Hello Mac friends, I figured while waiting for my 360/full protection case which says has Gorilla Glass (or maybe just tempered glass) I figure I must have a strong screen protector without spending US$60 to 70 for a sapphire screen protector. I experimented (could be the first to do it) with two US$0.47 tempered glass sandwich aligned with a bit of effort, together. My experimentation may be the first one tried that I know of (or most likely not):
wearing skin tight gloves, w/ the usual wet clean & dry sandwich together first (2nd on top, bottom glass must not be peeled yet) aligned w/ 3 to 4 straight blocks or similar then put on the phone preferably in a pre-wet bathroom where it's almost dust free (exhaust ON) w/ phone almost upright is best at eye level using head mounted wide magnifier w/ case kickstand (or just enough strong velcro onto a heavy block or taped on the sides on to a heavy block) preferred.
Mine's not dust free coz' if I look into my tri-lens head mounted magnifier it's impossible to not have very small things floating, unless one's in a vacuum chamber but it's unnoticeable under normal use (will have fingerprints anyway under normal use) with colors on the screen. Best method if one wears gloves is to peel the whole cover w/ two tapes to hold on to at each ends then put on the phone's screen, to align more precisely
It passed the apps like the Phone Diagnostics app which tests all parts (from sensors to voice calls). May this 94 cent dual sandwich screen protector be as strong as sapphire or hybrid X-D. If it can be reused w/ my upcoming 360/full protection/"Iron Man armor" case (have to even use allen wrench with that case- I'll put blue thread locks to be sure) which has Gorilla Glass I pray (it may just have tempered glass, is there a practical way to test if a glass is Gorilla Glass), that'll make it 3 layers of screen protection :-D. I hope it's still functional and will pass all Phone Dianostics app tests.
It'd be nice to test this with three (if it works with the 360 case w/ 3 layers) real sapphire (from Shellrus or Hodo) screen protectors but those will be almost US$210 without shipping.
