I removed the skin wraps from the Switch and the dock there was no damage to the logos or the plastic of the Switch & Dock. However we did get a little worried when removing the skin from the joycon grip as it looked like something had happened to it but on further inspection it was just a little reside from the skin as instead of removing the skin with care and taking my time i ripped it of quickly being hasty.īeing hasty and ripping the skin off it left a little adhesive on the Nintendo Switch logo with it having more texture, after a quick wipe clean it was clear it was not damaged, what a relief.Īt this point skins had been on the main part of the Nintendo Switch & Dock for almost 4 or 5 days now and even though i loved how it looked with the retro super nintendo theme skins i though it was best to take skins off all parts just to make sure. Again after 48 hours the skins removed from the joycon fine no issues or damage caused. So it was time for another test this time i just did a quick Legend of Zelda inspired skin for the joycons. Checking the PSA that had been released we decided to do another test for longer as reports of damage where when a skin wrap had been on for more than 48 hours. I decided to go with a a retro snes theme skin for the 1st test, so the skin was made and fit, fitment was great and it looked awesome, got to love the nostalgic style.Īfter 24 hours or so i removed the joycon skins and they came off fine and on inspecting the condition of the joycons they looked fine, no damaged had been caused the plastic coating had not peeled or damaged in any way so things where looking good. Some time later after a bit of R&D and some trial and error we had a skin template ready for the Switch. We have heard the reports of skins & wraps damaging the Switch plastic, like everyone else this had us worried but from the reports and info it seemed like it was only from a skin maker that uses 3M Architectural wrap, being in the wrap & decal industry for a while i know there is lots of varying grades of vinyl wrap, adhesive solvent & strength levels so knowing this and the fact we use a range of wraps from Avery, Arlon, Hexis, and other grades of 3M i decided i would use my personal device for further testing.Īs normal as soon as we got a Nintendo Switch i got to work on measuring and making a cut template for skins before i even had a chance to play the new Zelda game.
