"Key and coin SCRATCH test" video clip!!!

For anyone wondering or worried about your iPod scratching, I made a video that shows off the strength of the Invisible Shield protective film that I bought for my 60GB 5G iPod.

The video contains close ups, key scratching, and a ziploc bag full of keys and coins to "simulate" an iPod inside your pocket. In the end, my iPod remained scratch-free.

Here's the video:

Don't sue Apple if you want a scratch-free iPod... just buy a good case 🙂

So what do you think?

If I apply Invisible Shield to my 60gb iPod photo
will I still be able to put the iPod into the Dock
that came with it?

It should work. I was able to fit my 60GB video iPod with InvsibleShield into an Apple Universal Dock just fine.

I left the front packaging film on my iPod until the InvisibleShield came in the mail BUT I also barely used it until then.

hey i loved that video. but, what would truly amaze me is if you tested the durability of the invisible shield by rubbing it with 80 grit sandpaper.

Haha, it's funny you say that because I was working out at the gym and decided to run on the treadmill with my iPod. Well, my iPod fell and got lodged between the base and the side of the conveyor belt for a good 10 seconds (Imagine the iPod being scratched through an electric wood sander). Any way, even to my surprise my iPod survived! There were some rubber markings on the Invisible Shield from the conveyor but after I wiped it off, it was fine!
