Step 1
Leaving behind any glue or glass bits? That could mean your shiny new display won’t fit just right and might even take a hit! Let’s keep it clean for a smooth installation.
– Let’s get that phone frame looking spick and span! Start by removing any leftover adhesive and debris. Grab some high-concentration isopropyl alcohol (over 90%) and give that adhesion surface a good clean with a lint-free cloth. You’ll want it squeaky clean!
– Now, it’s time to peel off the clear plastic backing from the pre-cut adhesive strip. This will reveal one side of the adhesive, ready for action!

Step 2
– Gently align one edge of the adhesive with the matching edge of your phone frame. It’s important to get the orientation just right!
– Next, place the adhesive down softly onto the frame.
– Double-check that the adhesive cutouts fit your phone perfectly, ensuring that the camera and sensors aren’t hidden away under the adhesive.
– If things aren’t lined up as they should be, no worries! Just peel the adhesive back up carefully and try again.
Step 4
Before you go all in and stick that screen down, why not give it a quick test run? It’s a smart move!
– Keep putting your device back together until you’re ready to give that screen a warm welcome.
– Carefully peel off the green plastic liner from the adhesive strip to reveal the sticky goodness that will hold your screen in place.
– Gently position the phone screen right on top of the adhesive, making sure it’s just right.
– Use your fingers to give a little love around the edges of the phone to ensure the adhesive sticks like it means it.
– Place a few books on top of the screen for about an hour to help the adhesive bond like best friends.
