If I purchase a dbrand skin and apply it. How hard is it to remove it? If for some reason I don't like it on there. Any residue or mark's let behind
[Nexus 6 Accessories] P1 Wookie:
I don't feel like it will. They're very high quality skins. I even pulled mine back off a couple of times to line it up a little better.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ManHands:
Any one have experience with The Air Dock and DBrand skins? I worry about the skin ripping off when removing from the dock.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] aboveusonlysky:
i had that blue carbon on my g3 i got so many compliments.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Where did you get it? Its not listed on their website... I want one for my Nexus and G3 :(
[Nexus 6 Accessories] aboveusonlysky:
you have to email them with a custom request. it costed me like $25 USD for accents front and back.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
I'm going to email them and ask about it. Thank you! :)
[Nexus 6 Accessories] msd24200:
Exactly my thought as well
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Illrigger:
They come off very easily, leave no residue (3M adhesive - those guys make some crazy impressive stuff), and if you save the back paper that came with them you can store the skin on it and re-apply later.

I just got my bright yellow back skin (no accents or front, didn't care for the look). My first from dbrand. All of the reports of quality, fit, and ease of application are absolutely true. Took me a few tries to get the nexus logo lined up right, but taking it off and trying again was easy, and the entire process took about 10 minutes. Slippled the phone back into my Spigen Crystal Clear hard case, and am very happy with the results.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Yellow? That must have looked interesting. Did you take any pictures of it? I accidentally ripped my red carbon removing it because of the letter cut outs but it's no big deal. I might install my blue one later just to see if I like it.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Illrigger:
I picked yellow specifically because it would go well with the midnight blue since I wasn't getting the accent skins. Some pics, via my wife's Lumia 925. I was struggling to get a pic without the flash - they make the color look brighter than it really is. Ended up going to the window sill (where the cats love to sit, apparently I need to wash it) and that ended up reflecting a bunch of the natural light off the case. No way to win :(
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jasonleb1:
Which clear case is that?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
The yellow doesn't look bad and yellow is my least shorter l favorite color. I like my matte black, but I might try my blue later this week when I get more time. More exams for this guy tomorrow :(
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Illrigger:
Spigen - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OH4HVE8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The description is misleading. The clear case is pure clear polycabonate, the rest are matte poly/TPU. I like it, but it's a slippery little fingerprint magnet.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] funkyboy1281:
Black titanium with white accents
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Dusty Rhodes:
I tossed my skin on a few minutes ago. I have the 64GBCW I went with black CF and flat red accents...

This is what Dbrand said it was originally going to look like, before they got rid of the Moto logo on the dot...

I'm so glad I didn't go with the MB color N6.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] acheney1990:
Just got my red carbon fiber back...already had the front. Looks and feels sweet. Decided not to cover the Moto dimple just yet. Will post pictures as soon as I find a camera.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] 1SiK1500:
Love Dbrand Skins. Always such quality products. they really take care of their customers.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ericdmiller:
Did anyone confirm which skin this is?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jj14:
I have this one too - nice, relatively thin (doesn't add significant bulk to the phone). Gonna keep it on till I decide to be braver (stupider) and go caseless :)
[Nexus 6 Accessories] scandalousk:
Dbrand answered me and confirmed that it's matte black
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Matte black I have that exact set up on my phone right now. Check back a few pages in the OP for pictures.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ericdmiller:
Do you notice a significant increase in grip vs the carbon one?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
It has less grip actually. To be honest Nome really offer that much grip, but it is more than the stock slippery back.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ryancell:
I went through the thread and didnt recall seeing anyone with the white carbon fiber. Has anyone tried this yet? I wanted a white nexus 6, but with carriers getting the midnight blue, I was debating making my own white back, just wondered how the white looks with the blue, especially the white carbon fiber version. Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] EvoKnvl:
I ordered the CF White. It supposedly shipped on the 13th of Nov. Still waiting... But I have a CW 6. :(
[Nexus 6 Accessories] EvoYas:
Got me a leather back skin with all branding hidden, now I can rock my Nexus without a case :D
[Nexus 6 Accessories] P1 Wookie:
I have it, but I have my black carbon installed right now.

White or black goes with anything though.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mygti02:
Order Black CF, can't wait for it to get here. I hope install isn't too difficult. I got it with the nexus branding exposed.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Blue skin, no moto cut out, black carbon accent for the camera

enjoy the pictures ;)

The case is a TUDIA clear TPU

Also it's a very vibrant blue the S5 seems to have difficulty capturing its true color except for the one good picture.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] rootusr:
Hey guys, Any of you with the black matte skin in the Nexus 6, is the grip better with the Skin than without it? worst?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Its better (slightly) with the skin.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Dusty Rhodes:
Hey, how is that plastidip holding up?

I really want a touch more grip on the back of the phone and something that could provide something like the OnePlus sandstone would be awesome and I think this might be the ticket.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
I might try it out on my matte black skin. I might have to stop at the hardware store this weekend and see how it goes.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] unregistered825:
It's starting to flake around the edges. I'm wondering if multiple coats it too much. I think one light coat would give it enough grip similar to sandpaper, at the same time not heavy enough to start flaking.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Have you thought about adding a clear coat.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] unregistered825:
I'm not familiar with the texture of a clear coat. It would probably work to minimize flaking, but not at the cost of losing the matte grip feep of the Plasti-Dip spray.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Its possible, clear cost is generally glossy,and it takes on the texture of ehays under it if you only apply a very thin coating of it.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] unregistered825:
Thanks. Clear coating is a great suggestion. I'll keep it in mind if I opt to go naked in the future.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] P1 Wookie:
Dbrand said the blue carbon will be officially available for all of their devices starting Dec 11
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Nice! I can't wait to order one.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] TOCS88:
I have never put a case on any of my Nexus devices, but I am finding that the Nexus 6 is just too slippery for me. So, I am going to get one of these for me and my dad. After reading this thread I am worried about the shipping. Is it possible to get it here in the states (UT) before Christmas? Thanks
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Dusty Rhodes:
The clear coat wouldn't stop the flaking since it would be applied on top of the plastidip.

The plastidip would probably still peel from the original surface below.

Now, if you could pretreat the Dbrand skin with something that likes to stick to the Dbrand that also the plastidip likes to stick to, then you might be on to something. (If what I said made sense!)... Basically a sandwich material that the Dbrand AND the plastidip adhere to really well.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
I'd you order it now you should. The USPS just sucks depending on where you live. IRS better to order it now before the mail system gets even more crowded. Alternately you could email them and see if you could pay to ship it faster.

---------- Post added at 05:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:30 PM ----------

I could see that happening. Its really hard to tell how you would stop it unless there is something else that could be used.

Speaking of other coatings, has anyone else seen the rubber spray cans at home depot? They had black, white and another color a while ago. I think krylon made them and it might be worth looking into.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] hupo224:

[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
That will look nice, I'm using a clear case with a blue skin right now. I'm very indecisive when it comes to my phones case and skin.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] hupo224:
Nice! I'm the same way. Hope I like it lol.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
In just waiting on the blue carbon now once it's released. I have 5 cases and 5 skins currently.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mjs2011:
I really one but I don't have a hair dryer in the house. Are there any alternatives that you'd recommend?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
A heat gun (if you're careful) definitely no open flames.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Andromjb:
Can't tell if serious or not.. I didn't use a hair dryer or any heat for mine.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] P1 Wookie:
Depends on which one they get. Dbrand calls for a heat gun for the front and for the back skin without the dimple cutout. Otherwise, no you do not need a hair dryer.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jay661972:
Mine got installed today

I thought they discontinued all of the glass products after Google told them their logo was to similar to Google glass. I'm glad they decided to bring it back

Any promotion code for xda members (like for Nexus 5)? :o
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jmill75:
How much grip did the leather add? Any? I was thinking of getting it also.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] P1 Wookie:
That combined with quality issues. Maybe they got it worked out.

[Nexus 6 Accessories] nyijedi:
Only slightly better, huh? I'd really like some type of skin that adds a good amount of grip to the back of the phone. I guess the D-brand isn't it.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] eurominican:

BTW, D-Brand website design is so sleek and awesome and whoever is behind it (1 or more ppl?) have great sense of humor, loving the fb posts and replies lol
[Nexus 6 Accessories] stumpy352:
Yeah, plastidip is designed to peel off. A friend uses it on his car, and when it fades or he gets sick of the color, he just peels it off and does it again.

I think the best thing would be to buy one of those cheap replacement back covers from China & paint it with soft touch.

---------- Post added at 04:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:15 PM ----------

Use the dbrand moto dot to mask, and pull the nexus letters out first. Then when dry, pull the dot out & replace the nexus letters.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
No skin I've used has a lot of grip from any company. The matte skins have more grip than the stock back but its not like you're going to find something with a sandpaper grip.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Mahapederdon:
Local skate shop with grip tape. Haha. Use the dbrand as a template.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
That's a good idea post some pictures if you get it done.

[Nexus 6 Accessories] PaisanNYC:
dust bubble on the bottom?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] egavas61:
Yeah.. I just noticed it after I posted this pic.. ****! Hopefully I can peel it up and fix it.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] PaisanNYC:
i cant guarantee this to work, but peel it up from the closest corner very slowly, dip the corner of a credit card in water (preferrably soapy water) for lubrication, and SLOWLY try to work the dust piece out with the wet cornered credit card.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Hair dryer to heat it up so you can pull it back then just use a piece of scotch tape to get the dirt off and heat it up again when you apply it.

I've installed 20+ skins and never had any issues with fixing a tiny spot like that
[Nexus 6 Accessories] egavas61:
Thanks fellas. Used a hair dryer to heat the corner, and a credit card to slip under the skin to peel it back and remove the dust. Worked like a charm!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] PaisanNYC:
You are the man! Thanks for the correction. I don't wanna get someone all screwed up.

[Nexus 6 Accessories] LilCozyFab:
I was seriously considering the mahogany. What does it feel like? I'm obviously not expecting it to feel would grain, but I'm wondering if it's just as slick as a vinyl stick or if there is anything to it.

Thanks for your help.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
It feels very similar to cork in my opinion. That's the best way that I could describe it.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] fredgarvin5:
Anybody use d brand skin with the UAG maverick? I would like pics.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] LilCozyFab:
Thank you sir. I'd love the Red Carbon Fiber, but the midnight blue metal kills it for me. So I'm probably in for a mahogany, a white carbon fiber or white leather and a black titanium.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
I have the red carbon on a blue Nexus it looks nice. You can see the pictures earlier in the op or I could post them again if you want to see it

Ordered carbon black and nexus and dimple cutouts friday... Still processing

Was hopingnitnwould shop up this week, but with them using usps and still not shipped... I doubt that will happen.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Kendaihou:
If you ordered Friday, it will ship Tuesday or Wednesday. Thursday at the latest. They use Canada Post to ship and then when it enters the U.S. it gets handed off to USPS. You should get it in 7-14 days I think once it ships.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] 413vzwh8r:
7-14 days? For $3? Thats atrocious... I dont think the shipping for my screen protector and case came to that much together.... Where in Canada are they?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] sitnlow4life:
Toronto
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Kendaihou:
Its estimated 7-14 days but you should it get it in less than a week. 3 bucks its just typical letter mail, that's just standard postage. It took me one time a month or so to get my skin I ordered for another device and I live an hour away from them. I didn't blame them, I blamed Canada Post for that. The company is in Toronto, ON.

does anyone have a Dbran skin + bumper type case (ie like that LG oem nexus 4 bumper) that works good against falls and fits nicely?

1)if i have a blue nexus6 , and i choose the white device color option on dbrand site, will it cover the blue color of my phone? im not sure what accent means? 10$ bucks for the back, 2$ bucks for 'accent' + $3 shipping to canaduh! total $15cdn

i plan to buy clear back case to cover over the dbran skin, thnks

There's a thread here.. Please post any information if you guys find a good bumper case!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] cccoltsicehockey:
So I bought two skins the Mahogany and the Black Leather but I have not installed them yet. Has anyone removed a skin yet and had any issues with the Nexus letters coming off or the moto M if you had the dimple covered? Also I assume once you remove them you can't use them again like any other vinyl decal product?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
Nope I've applied and removed 3 skins with 0 issues so far.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] VinceThePrince:
What tempered glass are people using underneath the front skin? And that would mean two layers of protection, right? Since front skin also has its own screen protector
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Andromjb:
Anyone else ordering the blue carbon fiber tomorrow? :D

how do u apply that CF dbrand skin? do i need heat gun? TIA

This was the dbrand I was looking at for my midnight blue N6 as well. Looks great, thanks for posting!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] P1 Wookie:
The same as all the others. They have a how to vid on their site. Only time you need a blow dryer is for the front skin and the back skin with the moto dimple covered.

---------- Post added at 04:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:23 PM ----------

Probably. Most likely. Yeah. Lol
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
No question, that's easily the best skin so far. I still have matte black, red and black carbon and my blue one. Ive wanted he blue carbon since I first saw it back in June/July.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] CarpathianSS:
I too would like to know this. Anyone?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
The front skin does not have a built in screen protector. It is a separate piece that is optional to put on.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mustyrash:
I believe people are using the orzly one since it's the only one that doesn't halo or bubble right now. From what I can tell, it's a tight fit and doesn't cover the curved glass on the side so people are using these skins to protect the front.

If it's not too much trouble, could someone post a picture of their dbrand on an orzly? I've never used a glass protector or a dbrand before

[Nexus 6 Accessories] CarpathianSS:
This is what I am referring to. I am aware that it comes with a plastic protector that goes over the screen and the skin goes around the bezel. This seems to align without any issues. I wonder if the bubbles are present, just hidden. The Orzly one seems like it would show a transition point where the TG ends just past the edge of the screen.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] VinceThePrince:
Thanks for the info. So the skin goes on first then the glass on top, right?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mustyrash:
i dont thinks so, if i was to do it id do the glass then the skin.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] CarpathianSS:
I think now, judging by the statement and photo provided by swaze it seems the skin is on top of the TG. My initial thoughts were to put the skin on then the TG over the skin.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] VinceThePrince:
But if you put the glass first, wouldn't there be a noticeable hump around the edge of the skin, caused by the thickness of the glass and the fact that it's cut smaller? If you put the skin first then it would be flush with the device. Forgive me if I'm wrong, just trying to visualize it
[Nexus 6 Accessories] CarpathianSS:
No, I'm right there with ya. If ya read what I said just a few minutes ago my thoughts are aligning with yours. Unless he isn't using an Orzly one. I don't have my phone yet but I do have the front skin and a TG from xtreme. The ones that are too large to adhere properly to the edges giving a halo effect. They seem to line up very well. Only issue I could see is maybe around the FF speakers.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] mustyrash:
I think the dbrand skin is 0.2mm thick and the orzly is 0.24mm thick so there could be a 0.04mm bump or difference. Next to nothing but it is something.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] rubi76:
I think it's Matte Black?
