You buy just one large screen protector of any size and cut it down. I hope Kobo BW’s porous texture will not make it stick bad
Another great option - thank you. For now I am going to stick with the clear case.

Is this an example: https://www.armorsuit.com/products/a...pr_seq=uniform

I don't see anything labeled glossy, but others are either glass or matte.

If you remove it, does it leave a residue?

The link you showed is “anti-glare matte” - this is not what you want. You want “glossy” or “clear”? I forgot exact wording. They usually only have two options (matte/glossy) for surface, and regular or case-friendly (but that’s just shape).

When you remove it, it doesn’t leave residue!
They use a special glue on the film, which you need to apply using their included spray. It works really good for screens! They heal all bubbles and wet residue overnight and looks pristine afterwards. So I imagine they would a great fit for plastic surface as well.

Only concern I might have in mind is again these grooves (dots) on the back of the Clara BW. They might trap this spray, or maybe evaporate but longer - I don’t know.

Here is a “glossy” example: https://www.amazon.com/Armor-Suit-Mi.../dp/B0BTH8P439

There are also sizes for small Kindles and phones, but I suggest you get one for a larger screen, because they all cost about the same xD 15$ +\- 2 maybe
