OK, so my windscreen's getting those milky bits at the corners. I'm loathe to throw a brick through it and try to claim on the insurance, but my S3 had gloss black pieces (sticky-backed pastic) on the corners of the screen that did a good cosmetic job of covering up the problem. Has anyone else seen this trick done, and where can I get the bits from?

Mine has the same. This was as I bought it. But a previous owner has put black sealant over the edges and it has stopped it. At least it hasn't got worse in the 14 monthes or so I have owned it. Saying that, the 400 screen edges are easy to see and get too, not sure what's it like on a S.

'not sure what's it like on a S.'

The key word was 'had' - this is a Griff! I've subsequently put some sealant into the beading, but the effect had already started and it can only go one way - worse! I know a couple of places that sell Fablon so will check it out - I had thought it might have been some special or clever stuff, but perhaps not.
