Speed your touchscreen

I'm outdoors a lot, hands gummy, screen gummy, moist fingers on dry screen etc.

Whether your using straight glass or a screen shield, this works pretty good slicking up your for moving from screen to screen.

Edit: Car WAX works far better, stays put, is impervious to the acids and sweat, and doesn't collect dust. Thanks go to those below that provided this excellent solution.

LOL. Great idea and honestly I did the same thing by accident with olive oil.

Then when you put the phone to your ear to make or receive a call, you can enjoy silicone face when you are done.

This is what Bluetooth ear growths and the awesome speakerphone is for.

Infact I hardly ever hold this thing up to my head anymore. Most people can't tell I have them on speakerphone with the DX (Blackberry was pretty good too)

Besides this time of year my face could use a little moisturizer.

Wonder if "Dry Slide" would work? Basically just graphite powder.

Edited: No, but collectively we did a "McGyver!"

Nope I haven't tried it.. Every once in a while I use the LCD cleaner I bought for my TV, and then wipe it with a microfiber. Haven't had a problem with it being sticky..

I use a little car wax, it lasts longer and is makes the screen slick.

Didn't think about car wax. Car wax would stand up to the acids and moisture in sweat better than silicone. Good idea!

Would think that a carnuba based car wax would work excellent - gonna try it out.

Thank you!

You know I just tired car polish (not carnuba wax but polymer - meguiars tech wax). works really well, just keep it off the rubberized finish.

This stuff is the greatest cleaner/polish I have ever used on my phones and laptops. I really don't know why more people haven't heard of it. It puts the nicest slick surface on glass and plastic.

BTW, I have absolutely no affiliation with these guys, I have just used it at work for years, and love it.

Used the McGuires and you are right. Wax works better than the silicone.

Thanks to those that brought up Car Wax.

I've been using this on my phone screen:

146AS Anti-Static Finish Restorer offered by Finish Kare Mold Release

A well known product amongst car detailing enthusiasts.....also works awesome on my TV screens for repelling dust. Unfortunately it seems harder to purchase since the last time I purchased my gallon jug direct from the manufacturer.
