Replacing glass on ipad 4 - messy

[SprinterTech-WI]

I thought I would give your recommendation a shot and ordered about 100 templates to test. The stuff we received is terrible, worst than what is on digitizers originally. We've tried to stick this stuff dry, it lifted, then we tried it with heat and clamping it overnight, it lifted in a couple hours after we removed the clamp. I'm not sure if we got a bad batch or ordered the wrong stuff from him but we're back to blower tech until we find something better. I'm throwing away the rest of these templates as they are just awful and rework will be guaranteed if we ship anything with this tape.

What models did you get?
We have used about 400 of them with 1 failing (turned into a frame issue).

Keep in mind Motorola uses oca as their glue so tape templates will not work well on Motorola devices. Also all surfaces need to be cleaned correctly.

We only do iPad and other tablet repairs so no phones templates were ordered. We purchased the ipad templates. I just got off chat with them and they let me know that their ipad templates are just listed for convenience and not their main product. When I explained it doesn't stick correctly I was told I'm probably making a mistake, working with bent frames or not prepping the surfaces correctly. Something wrong with what I'm doing. I have big shoulders, no problem, not the first time and probably won't be the last time someone selling inferior parts blames me for their failure.

Here is the reason his iPad templates suck. The tape is too thin

OEM iPad tape = 0.18mm
3M 300LSE tape = 0.17mm
BowlerTech tape = 0.17mm
TapeTemplate.com iPad Tape = 0.08mm

They probably have great phone tape. I don't recommend them for iPad tape unless you want everything to return.
