Macbook Pro 13 Retina 2015 screen protector by Staingate?
Hello.
Became a happy owner of Macbook Pro 13 Retina Early 2015 . Bought from a work colleague, perfect condition. The laptop was in use for a year and 2 months.
And of course, I immediately started googling about the problem of peeling off an anti-reflective coating called Staingate . What prompted me to do this is that on the screen closer to the center there seem to be 2 wipes, resembling risks from the "F" / "J" keys in width (though not next to each other, but one above the other). Around the edges and in other places everything is clean, no signs.
Actually 3 questions gentlemen:

1 Any screen with an anti-reflective coating can have this problem. But since it is no longer found in large quantities on the first retinas, apparently the technology has been improved. And it all depends on how you use it. The destruction of the coating by mechanical means occurs. Particles of dust, dirt, etc. which are located between the screen and the keyboard, scratch and destroy this layer when they often carry a poppy with them.
2 The film will certainly help, but it will not look very good.
3 No special means are required, but it is better not to use any active, alcohol-containing, etc. The key is to use a soft cloth.
This layer is highly chemical resistant. I experimented on a broken screen with a partially peeled off coating, tried rubbing it with alcohol, gasoline, Fluxof, WD. Almost 0 reaction. Only in those places where it had already collapsed, the stain turned out to be enlarged. And if you rub on an undamaged place, then it is resistant to chemistry. I think this layer can sit on different parts of the screen with different strengths and this was due to a defect in the production of the first matrices. Now, if there are areas where it has not adhered well, then there it can fall off over time, even without much mechanical impact.
But if there is a task to erase this layer, then mechanically it is quite easy to do. We take a polish to remove scratches on the car, a leather cloth, and start rubbing, half an hour of diligence and there will be no layer :)
PS Apple had a program for replacing caps that had damaged coatings, and now I googled that they kind of extended the program, but they didn’t tell anyone as usual)) www.macdigger.ru/macall/apple-prodlila-programmu-z...
Try call an authorized service, they can change it.
Scuffs could appear if the laptop was carried with one hand, holding it like a folder, i.e. essentially pressing the screen against the keyboard. Many people like to wear laptops like this. Under normal wear, including in a bag, the screen does not come into contact with the keyboard. The finger pressure required to hold the laptop with one hand is quite strong and it pushes the screen so that it is pressed against the keyboard.
I myself had a Pro Retina 13", I used it neatly for a year and a half. When I sold it, the screen was ideal, like out of the box. I wiped it with microfiber for optics, I didn’t use any means. The film is a perversion, only spoil the image.
