ishade air bubbles!

i got an exoflip and also an ishade. i've tried to position the ishade and then RE-position it but i always get little air bubbles. they don't bother me too too much, but i'd like it a lot more if the air bubbles are gone!
please help or tell me your experiences! thanks.

Have you tried lightly spraying the back of the ishade with a non-ammonia window cleaner... putting it on, then using a stiff plastic "squeege" to work the bubbles out?
This is a technique used in applying decals/window tint/plastic to plastic... so it should work on the ishade.
Just make sure to use very little fluid and when it dries, it should be fine.

No it won't work on the ishade. The problem is because the ishade has a con...cave back. That and due to it being a bit stiffer type of plastic. Lajo mentioned something about he's starting to make them in more flexible TPU so that the air bubbles don't happen. He claims to have already fixed it with his iPod Mini iShades.

What I do is just sorta drop it onto the iPods screen and nudge it around until it's as close on the screen as it can get (lined up that is) and then use my fingernails to push the very outer corner edges down to cause a suction and the "bubbles" are minimal that way.
