I was going to wait to announce this when I had the new parts in hand,
but since you brought it up...
We are now having NuShields professionally die cut. They no will no
longer have the "chipped" edges that were caused by my cutting them with
a steel mallet die. We are waiting for parts delivery and expect them
early next week. All orders from now forward will be filled with the new
NuShields.
As for static issues that can attract dirt, the simple solution is to
clean both the Newton screen and the back of the NuShield with a damp
(not wet!) cloth before installation. Dry both thoroughly and then
install your NuShield. The static charges that can build up on a plastic
film will then be greatly diminished.
