Frequently Asked Questions
Products
How much of the phone does it protect?
SureShield can cover the entire screen (glass areas), including edges.
How do you apply it?
Application is simple. You can follow along with the video HERE.
Or follow our step-by-step instructions:
Pre-cleaning Device Screen
STEP 1 | THOROUGHLY CLEAN THE DEVICE SCREEN WITH THE CLEANER WIPE. |
STEP 2 | ALLOW DEVICE SCREEN TO FULLY DRY. |
STEP 3 | REMOVE ALL TRACES OF CLEANER RESIDUE BY BUFFING THE GLASS WITH THE MICROFIBER CLOTH. |
PLEASE NOTE: THAT ANY CLEANER RESIDUE LEFT ON THE SCREEN WILL ADVERSELY AFFECT THE ABILITY OF THE NANO COATING TO BOND TO IT.
Applying the Nano Coating
STEP 1 | USE THE NANO COATING WIPE IN A CIRCULAR MOTION TO APPLY THE NANO COATING OVER THE ENTIRE SURFACE OF YOUR DEVICE SCREEN. |
STEP 2 | ALLOW THE SCREEN SURFACE TO DRY FOR AT LEAST 10 MINUTES. WHEN FULLY DRY A RESIDUE WILL BE VISIBLE ON THE DEVICE SCREEN. |
STEP 3 | USE THE MICROFIBER CLOTH TO COMPLETELY REMOVE THE EXCESS NANO COATING RESIDUE. |
YOUR DEVICE IS NOW READY TO USE.
PLEASE NOTE: FOR OPTIMAL RESULTS AND TO ALLOW MAXIMUM DRYING & CURING TIME, IT IS RECOMMENDED TO APPLY THE NANO COATING LAST THING AT NIGHT AND COMPLETE STEP 3 IN THE MORNING.
Post Application
Following the application of the Quikcell SureShield Liquid Glass Screen Protector, you may notice that some minor scratching appears on your device. Please do not be concerned as this scratching is in a layer of excess liquid glass remaining on the device screen after application. This scratching is easily buffed off using the microfiber cloth supplied. The device screen always remains protected by the Nano surface layer.
Is it safe for all ports and buttons?
Yes, totally safe. While, SureShield is best suited for the areas of your device with glass, it is ok if it is accidentally wiped over a port or button during the application process.
Does SureShield screen protector make a glare?
No, once you complete the buffing process, SureShield is invisible to the naked eye.
Is it like tempered glass?
Both serve the same purpose to protect the display on your device. While tempered glass lays on top of your screen, SureShield actually bonds to the glass itself, on a molecular level.
How does SureShield Screen Protector work?
When viewed under an electron microscope a mobile screen is not smooth surface, it is full of valleys and ridges which can become points of weakness with exposed to external stress such as drop or abrasion. By coating the device screen with a layer of SureShield these ridges are filled in and the glass becomes much stronger and smoother. When the liquid glass coating is wiped onto a mobile device screen and the carrier evaporates, then the glass particles remaining on the coated surface embed themselves into the screen at the nano level delivering a highly protective and extremely durable new glass layer.
What devices can SureShield be used on?
You can safely use SureShield to protect any glass screen or glass surface. This includes devices such as smartphones, tablets and smartwatches. Essentially when applied to any glass surface or screen, SureShield will increase resistance to scratch and shatter.
Is it harmful to my device?
No, not at all! SureShield is a completely inert substance and does not harm your device in any way.
Can I remove SureShield from my screen once it has been applied?
Once it has been successfully applied, it bonds with the glass it has been applied to and becomes part of that glass itself, meaning it cannot be removed.
Can I use SureShield all over my phone?
SureShield is only effective when applied to the glass surfaces on your device. It does not protect any non-glass surface. While you may apply SureShield to both the glass on a device’s camera and the Device Screen, the Device Reimbursement Guarantee only covers the Device Screen, not the camera glass.
If my glass screen is cracked, can I still apply SureShield?
It is possible to apply SureShield to a cracked screen, however we would strongly advise against it as you will not be able to register your device for the Device Reimbursement Guarantee with a cracked or broken screen and the level of protection offered by the coating will be dramatically reduced. We would always recommend that you replace a cracked or broken screen before applying the SureShield.
How many devices can one pack of SureShield coat?
Each pack is designed to coat one device only and you can only register one device per pack with the Device Reimbursement Guarantee.
Does the SureShield make my device scratchproof and shatterproof?
SureShield has been designed to increase the level of shatter and scratch resistance of mobile devices under normal use and conditions. It is important to remember that your device screen is still made of glass and if you apply excessive blunt force to any glass surface, it will suffer damage.
I have noticed scratches on my device; however, I have only just applied SureShield to my screen. What do I do?
Following the application of your SureShield, you may notice that some minor scratching appears on your device. Please do not be concerned as this scratching is in a layer of excess glass remaining on your screen after application. This scratching is easily buffed off using a microfiber cloth.
