There is a possibility that when installing a NuShield on a dirty screen,
grit on the screen can be lodged under the case and cause the "jaggies"
problem. The solution, of course, is simple. Start with a clean screen.
You need to do this anyway since and dirt or grit trapped under the
NuShield film can scratch the screen if a stylus is applied to it. This
is exactly what you're trying to prevent! NuShields can prevent any
additional grit from getting under the screen and causing this problem.
It should be noted, as has been stated on this list, that the dirt under
the screen is not the only cause of "jaggies".
