Did the screen protector hide the scratches?

Yes I can't see them and don't really notice the screen protector on.

Mine came in the mail today and I installed it. The install was tricky, because just as luck would have it, I peeled the strip off the glass to expose the adhesive and a few specs of dust landed on the sticky side. Went to wipe it off with the enclosed cloth and that left a bunch of debris behind and was much worse. Luckily I figured out that they enclosed a blue sticker/tape thing that you peel and it pulls debris out of the adhesive side of the glass.

After clearing that up and applying the glass twice to get rid of all the air pockets, it looks good and it functions well. There is a little more glare than before, but it's not a big deal.

I'm pleased with it.

I sat in the front seat for a couple minutes so the dust would settle and made very little motion before applying. Seemed to help keep the dust down

Yeah I did the same and thought for sure I was being careful, and then it just spiraled downhill from there. I even had the AC off.

At least it's done.

I installed mine today as well. Except a stubborn air pocket in one spot it went on without issues and looks pretty good. There is more glare but it's more noticeable when screen is off. When screen is on its fine. Biggest improvement is the responsiveness of the screen. It's much better than stock.

Good, I'm not the only one that noticed an improvement in responsiveness. It's really good.

Yeah for sure. It's worth getting just for that. In few months there will be similar options for $8.

This one is only $11.99

It says "Align the protector with your screen, then install it with the coming accessories..." wut?

Anyhow, is one side of these things completely sticky and then it sticks on the entire screen ???

Sounds like a pain in the baloney to remove if it is.

I just installed the radtech. It was a little difficult to get rid of the air bubbles, due to some dust, however I really like it. The anti glare is nice and I can see no scratches.

The screen protector looks great! Question: how did you get it to align so well? Did you use tape to hold the reference?
