Be the first to get cats out of the room

I bought an anti-reflective bag made out of two pieces of soft, flexible plastic. I'm glad he came with two because I had to give up the first try - why? CATS. There was no tissue in the package I received (the instructions included) but I have a box of lens and screen tissues and I cleaned my iPad leaving some streaks. After washing my hands with dish soap, I hardly ever used towels. with a damp paper towel to remove streaks, then with the provided microfiber cloth to buff the screen surface. I followed the simple instructions (tear off the backing by the tab first), smoothed out the backing and slowly began to unfold it, sliding it along with the scraper card. When a bubble appeared, I gently pushed it back half an inch and smoothed it out again. However, there were two blisters that I couldn't push out, so I turned on the correct lighting and found that they weren't blisters, but encapsulated cat hair. I took it off, threw it away and started again in a room with bright lights and no cats. In a house with 4 cats, their hair and dander is always airborne (just ask anyone with a cat allergy who comes to my house) so I rolled up my sleeves and tried a second one again, making sure to to examine the bare screen in the light at any angle. It went without a hitch, and the little bubble squeezed out easily when pushed to the side. After the last protective cover was removed from the red tongue, everything worked out great. If there was only one in the package, I would be very upset. So take my advice and make sure there are no animal skins (or real animals) around and good lighting. After cleaning, carefully check the screen by turning it against the light, and be sure to check the white frame before applying the screen protector. Clean and clean again, buffing in small circles with this microfiber cloth until the screen is completely free of every speck of dust. Slowly unfold the cover and tear off the backing inch by inch. I haven't used the Apple Pencil screen as I don't have one yet (just a crappy stylus I borrowed from one of my kids), so I can't yet comment on the feeling of drawing on the screen, but it looks like it out great, no glare and a lot less fingerprints. The iPad screen alone is a fingerprint magnet, but not as much. I chose this screencap based on some YouTube reviews from other people who use their iPad Pro for drawing and so far I think they're right.
