Hi Matt,
I received the instructions with the film.
I think that the wet method can be useful on bigger screens than the one on the Libretto.
I find it quite scary to wet a screen in fact. As I am not very patient I did it the dry way, without a problem.
Here is what the instructions say.
There are two ways in which the film can be laminated to the LCD screen; dry lamination and wet lamination. Dry lamination is more direct but also more prone to errors, especially when laminating an area as large as a laptop LCD display. Wet lamination requires a longer time before the display can be used but is much less sensitive to errors in lamination
Dry Lamination
Remove the liner that protects the adhesive and while only allowing the very edge of the film to touch, place the film�s edge squarely on the surface to be laminated. Using an ink pen with a round shaft or a squeegee put pressure right where the film starts on the surface. DO NOT LET THE FILM FALL DOWN AND TOUCH THE SURFACE OR THE FILM WILL HAVE MANY BUBBLES. Place the pen or squeegee in the curve created by holding the film up while one edge is �glued� to the surface and in one smooth motion move the pen down the film onto the LCD screen. Finally remove the protective liner on the anti-reflective side on the film and reassemble the GBA. If there are air gaps around the edges of the screen, run a fingernail around the edges of the LCD screen to push the air out of that gap.
Wet lamination
You need approximately 100 ml distilled water with 5 drops liquid dish soap (mix thoroughly)
Wet a clean cloth with the distilled water with dishwashing soap and wet the surface of the LCD. Rub the water mixture over the entire surface of the LCD � make sure that the entire surface is wetted with a thin layer of water � remove the excel water but make sure a thin layer of water is left behind.
Remove the liner that protects the adhesive and while only allowing the very edge of the film to touch, place the film�s edge squarely on the surface to be laminated. Using an ink pen with a round shaft or a squeegee put pressure right where the film starts on the surface. DO NOT LET THE FILM FALL DOWN AND TOUCH THE SURFACE OR THE FILM WILL HAVE MANY BUBBLES; HOWEVER, IF THE FILM DOES FALL AND TOUCH THE SURFACE, IN THIS CASE THE BUBBLES CAN BE PUSHED OUT FROM UNDER THE FILM.
Place the pen or squeegee in the curve created by holding the film up while one edge is �glued� to the surface and in one smooth motion move the pen down the film onto the LCD screen. Wipe excess water from screen and push any bubbles out from under the antireflective film. Allow the film to dry 1 or 2 days in a room at 25 �C to 30�C before removing the protective film on the anti-reflective side of the film. A clear defect free lamination should result.

They recommend two methods to apply the film: the wet and the dry one. The dry one worked beautifully for me. With some patience, millimeter per millimeter the film sticks to the screen and there is nothing else to do in order to have a perfect black surface. Not a single bubble left. Just a matter of working slowly.
I don't see any link to the processes on their website Georges. It must have come packaged with the film. If you could condense the processes for us, I'm sure a lot of us would be really interested in hearing how they go.
Matt
