Testing:

To start I have to apply The Invisible Shield. If your like me then following the instructions might scare you a little at first. The instructions say to get the section of the Invisible Shield you are about to apply quite wet, but trust me it works best to follow their instructions; they do know what they are doing. While I had a fear of getting parts of the Invisible Shield to wet before applying, I found that the wetter it was the easier it was to work with.

 

Now let’s try to damage my PSP with the newly installed Shield. I will begin by trying to imitate the YouTube video by grabbing a nearby key. Instead of the body, for some reason I decided to start with the screen, seeing as that to me that’s a far better testimony to its ability that to just protecting the back. After I did this a few times, I then started to freak out the other reviews here by showing them, and they were equally as impressed as I was. While the key did leave light scuff marks, they soon buffed out and I couldn’t even tell that I had tried this idiotic idea in the first place. I then decided to step it up and found a screw driver with a nice sharp tip. While that did leave a tiny mark on the Invisible Shield, that I must say I don't even notice anymore, its nothing compared to massive scratch that it should have left.

So now that my PSP has survived these horrible, torture tests I will reward it by playing some games on it. While playing I found that with this super material it gave the PSP a unique grip that wasn’t there before. Once I started playing I didn’t even notice the tiny mark from the screwdriver, let alone that the Invisible Shield was there at all.

Now see how well it worked:

I paid $15 for a piece of cheap film , I add it to my Ipod Touch , Ipod
classic and to my cell phone . All of them are Brand New with that film they
look like 5 years old . This is not worth more than $1 a piece , just marketing
, I remove all of them and trash them . My phone and the Ipod's look new again .
Sorry , Zagg's , I would not put your protection film again , if you give it
away for free .

MY reviewer put i on his black berry storm over a month ago and still looks
great. Sounds like user error haha jk. Who knows maybe you got a bad batch but I
have never seen any problems with this stuff. They use a similar product for
vehicles now. A friend of mine drove through a barb wire fence and the shield
was destroyed but absolutely no scratches on the car.

BEWARE OF ZAGG

I really hope I like this product because

I ordered a skin for
my Blackberry 9630 and my iPod Touch 2G. I selected Next Day Air option and when
it showed up late, I phoned for a refund on the shipping portion and they
wouldn’t oblige. The gave me 10 different excuses, none of which made sense.
The only reason I ordered Next Day Air, was that I was leaving town for 10 days,
otherwise, I would have had it shipped ground. I received an email stating that
my product had been shipped, and I waited patiently for it arrive. Nope, so when
I called the following day, on my way out of town, I asked for a refund for the
overnight shipping. They said that it sometimes takes awhile for things to get
out of their warehouse. So why did I receive an email stating my product had
been shipped with a tracking number and why did I pay for overnight shipping? I
told them I would return the product and they said it would take 30-60...

I need full body protection for my PSP Slim, any idea about the cheapest option?
I see gadgetshieldz is offering a $7.49 deal which worked great for my Nokia
5800. Installation wasn’t a problem then, shouldn’t be one now but the cost
has to be competitive…

Even though it is about $20 go for the invisible shield all the cheap protection
ends up wearing out to quickly and it is just a waste of money.

I'm not sure how a plastic sheet should cost more than what gadgetshieldz does.


I have used it for my Nokia 5800 and it works great, no scratches so far
and its not peeling off or anything after 2 months of use...and I am a heavy
user.

I don't think a big price tag should be the criteria for deciding if
something is of good quality or not.

Its not just a plastic sheet this stuff was made for the military to protect
helicopter blades. Not only does it not peel or break down it also doesn't
yellow. As for it being "expensive" $20 is cheap last I checked.

Come on mate, when you review something you look at what the competition. The
competition in this case if offering the same thing. Bestskinsever are offering
the same skins as gadgetshieldz and bodyguards and invisible shield. The only
difference is the cut and the package they send you. While one cut can be better
than the other, I don't agree that the difference between 7 bucks and 20 is to
cover for the shampoo solution. For what its worth, and keeping in mind what the
competition charges for the same thing, 20 bucks is expensive. Thats just my 2
cent.
