If it's any help I use their skins on my iPod, my daughters Nano, my fathers Nano and know a few other very happy customers.
I don't know anyone who's used it on the macbook but I wouldn't have any concerns about it - they are excellent, very strong, very easy to fit without bubbles appearing and after almost 6 months of daily usage by iPod is still lookin' good

These are the skins Virusyn was referring to...
BestSkinsEver They don't look like much, but I've found them very durable. |

I'd highly recommend invisibleSHIELD from ShieldZone. I use them on everything. I even had one for my old MacBook (using an iMac now). Link:
http://www.shieldzone.com/category/laptops/ Somewhat difficult to apply, but can even resist your keys scratching on it (I've tried!). The full skin kit for a 13" MacBook is $55 and is worth every penny. Mac Sites - down for reconstruction |

Application is very easy - I've done 2 nanos and my iPod and no problems - basically you peel the skin off the backing, dip it into a soapy water mix, let the excess water run off then smooth it onto the surface. When you're happy with the position you squeege out the air bubbles with a credit card and leave it to dry. Any small bubbles disappear over the next day or so. It stays on perfectly and the corners don't lift so I can't tell you about a gooey residue but I guess that's a good thing in a way! ![]() I haven't tried Shield Zone but found people on iLounge saying how good the BestSkinsEver was and that made me try one out. |
