Protection Tips from Gorilla Gearheads
Clean the interior of the clear case biweekly — skin oils and dust accumulate between the clear case and the titanium back and can cause micro-staining that is visible through the transparent shell. Clean the iPhone back with the microfiber cloth before reinstalling. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight even with UV stabilization — heat can warp any thin polycarbonate. Do not use acetone or strong solvents on the clear shell. Use code 10OFF at gorillacasestore.com.
