Well I had a piece of that film stuck onto my screen for several weeks (as in I've STILL yet to apply the full piece of film David sent me from the first time round and until 3 days ago I had the sample piece stuck down) ... I found that a bit of picking at it with my fingernail did the trick (and no I don't have particularly long or strong fingernails although I DO have plenty of practice using them to get lego bricks apart ...). Of greater concern was the fact that the adhesive either sticks to the film or to the screen but doesn't come off in one sheet so you've got to spend the next few minutes rolling the fragments of adhesive off the screen then rubbing it with a cleaning cloth to get rid of the residue. - Raymond --- /~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\ | | "Does fuzzy logic tickle?" | | ___ | "My HDD has no reverse.
