iPod Laminating?


Question Posted Monday January 8 2007, 5:05 pm

Hi. I bought an "invisasheild" which was a total waste of money. I was looking at what little bit you can look at and thought..."hmm, I bet laminating paper would work better"

So, I'm wondering, if I go to Wal-Mart and buy the laminating paper. You know, the kind that just sticks on without heat or anything. Would I be able to take it off, and do you think it would damage my iPod?

Cause the "invisasheild" is just pretty much that.

Thanks.

it depends on if you are ever going to take it off. i wouldn't suggest it because tape and laminating paper have adhisives that aren't meant to come off and they might leave a sticky film if you try. if you still want to protect your ipod you should try the socks or a different type of shield.

Personally I wouldn't do that. From experience I can tell you that even the slightest self-sticking thing will damage your iPod. The 'invisashield' is specially made to not damage your iPod (if purchased from Apple). The laminating paper at Wal-Mart is no better than sticking a sticker to the screen. If you even take it off it will leave a REALLY gross residue that picks up ANY piece of dirt or dust, it also scratches the screen. I would buy a proper case, that way you know you can change it without any worries and you know yout iPod is protected. If you just want something for scratch resistance than I would go for the silicone cases, they have a screen protector and there pretty cool (usually price ranged between 30 and 45$). But if you want maximum protection I'd go for something that has a polycarbonate case. For my iPod I have something from 'iSkin', its has a silicone case inside of a polycarbonate case, it was about 55$ but it works and it's really good quality.

Hope this is what you were looking for =]
