Check your pieces
Match Nexus 6P on your order to your phone. Identify the intended back and camera-area pieces, leaving unused sections on the backing.
Clean and dry
Switch off and unplug your phone. Follow the manufacturer's cleaning advice, keep moisture away from openings and let surfaces dry.
Set yourself up
Use clean, dry hands and a well-lit workspace. Watch the video with your supplied instructions beside you.
Fitting your Nexus 6P skin
Use the video for the exact positioning and order. Coverage depends on your chosen option.
-
Check alignment
Compare the intended edges and camera-area openings before pressing. Do not stretch the vinyl to make a cut-out reach.
-
Apply gradually
Follow the backing-removal method shown and smooth progressively. Avoid repeatedly lifting and pulling a section.
-
Finish the contours
Use gentle hairdryer warmth only where instructed. Do not use a heat gun or make the phone hot.
-
Inspect the openings
Keep lenses, sensors, buttons and ports clear. Do not force a tight case over the skin if it catches an edge.
Installation questions
What if the camera-area piece will not line up?
Stop and check the exact model, piece and orientation. Do not pull or trim the skin on the phone; send us a photo.
What about bubbles or lifting?
Avoid pins and extra force. Read our fitting troubleshooting guide.
