iSkin- can you stop it attracting dust?

[liam]

i just bought myself an iSkin eVo in Ebony (black), and i am generally quite happy with it. 1 problem : IT ATTRACTS DUST LIKE MAD ....and it shows up on my black rubber case really obviously. Is there any way to stop/limit this? Any help greatly appreciated.

All silicone cases attract a crazy amount of dust. I think baby powder works on Lajo's eXo3, so it might work on the iSkin eVo. Just make sure that you're prepared to have your black get a little lighter.

Thanks i'll give it a go tomorow morning and post the results. So have you done it on a exo3? anyone got a picture of a black skin thats had this done? will it ruin the look? hope not

liam,

Typically silicone is extremely sticky when new. We use this for casting the skins for creatures and characters.

It will get less sticky with time. I use one of those lint rollers on my Exo2. Mine is carbon so the lint is probably not quite as evident as on black.

I have used vaseline on mine and it helps but you will have to reapply. The powder helped but vaseline was better to me.

I have an iSkin (Artic) and dust attracts it alot! But baby powder? How does that work?

Try wiping the case with a fabric softener sheet (Bounce ?), the type that goes in the tumble dryer. It has been mentioned before in the forum.
