There have been a few members, myself included, who have had a strange problem with the Zagg InvisibleShield screen protector on the Bold and Javelin: After applying and leaving to dry overnight the device is turned on only to find what appears to be water blotches in and or under the screen. While these blotches do seem to go away within a week, I found them to be both worrisome and aggravating! And I may have found a fix, don't use the shield spray!
I recently had to reinstall my Zagg IS screen protector and had no blotches after applying. This is what I did: I mixed warm water and dish soap, about 10 to 1 ratio, in a bowl gently so it didn't froth. I dropped the Zagg into the bowl, washed it a little to get the finger prints off, took it out of the bowl, shook off the droplets, positioned it on the Bold's screen, and squeegeed the bubbles out with my bank card while dabbing the excess water with a paper towel. With the exception of the bowl of water, this is exactly how I installed it the first time using the Shield spray. So I'm fairly confident that the spray is the problem. Did you have this problem? No problems at all? Did this work for you? Did you find another way? Share your experiences

You said you reinstalled your Zagg.. so did you take off the Zagg , and place it on a different phone? I would think that the protector would get dirty and not be useable anymore. How did you remove it without damaging it?There have been a few members, myself included, who have had a strange problem with the Zagg InvisibleShield screen protector on the Bold and Javelin: After applying and leaving to dry overnight the device is turned on only to find what appears to be water blotches in and or under the screen.

So, I just pulled it off the rest of the way a little bit at a time. It streched but didn't tear. I let it sit in the warm water/soap combo for five minutes or so and it reverted back to its original size and shape. The dirt and finger oils came off easy and its still sticky

If you have some silica packets from electronics or shoes ect. drop those in a baggie with your Bold. Mine are gone completly. I actually started using mine before the spots went away, but I wouldn't recomend to you
