Clear sticker for the control unit.

[scott2433]

I was wondering if everyone is using the clear sticker that covers the entire face of the control unit (including the buttons)? I didn't notice it in the box when I opened it and there was nothing in the instructions telling you to use it. I hunted with it for about 90 minutes and the buttons were a little dirty so I cleaned them up but I really don't want to have to do that every time I use it. Thanks guys.

I use a clear plastic protector for the screen and a control box cover, so the remote stays dirt free.

I put it on mine. Makes the buttons a little harder to push but not too bad.

I used the one that was in the box. I started on the button end, pushing the plastic into the buttons, and worked up. They are a little harder to push but the insurance is worth the price.

I use it too and yes makes the buttons a little harder to push, worth the protection though.

Thanks guys. I installed mine as well.

I'm using a screen saver on screen, but not on the whole control.

I use Invisible Shield on my display portion only, not on the buttons (even though as flexible as it is, it would probably do fine).

I also cut a piece to cover my entire headphone controller surface to prevent any scratches.

I used this material on my ETrac and after 3.5 years it finally showed some scratch marks. They sent me a replacement cover for free and when I removed the old one to replace it, my machine still looked brand new.
