Being using Moshi Palmguard + Moshi keyboard protector and Specks black satin case since day one on my 15' MacBook Pro. Happy with the palmguard but not to happy with the keyboard protector since it get dirtier and hard to clean. Once in a while, take it off and do some dust cleaning.

i only have a satin black on my mbp. i used to have a keyboard protector on my mbp keyboard. but i really hate it during 'compression'. like when you press on your keys, it doesnt feel 'natural'. anyone else understands this feeling hahha?
didnt use it after two days.

now i use it when im transporting my wireless keyboard, or when im not using my wireless keyboard for awhile to prevent dust collection.

@llsphinxll
I know the feeling. But after a while (2 years now) i dont even care about the feeling and the MacBook Pro keyboard itself it still brand new compared to my friend MBP which kinda shiny on it surface.

To be frank, the 'compression' of the keyboard protector makes my rMBP's keyboard feel better actually, as the rMBP's keyboard key-travel is quite shallow.

But if compared to my previous cMBP 15 or my Apple Wireless Keyboard, those work better without the protector on.

Nice. I'm using the Notepal Infinite Evo now. Love how the aluminium look of the cooler matches my rMBP.

Indeed. Best build quality laptop in the world.

Yeah. I've seen just too many MBA / MBP which has their aluminium top cover scratched and it looks awful.

No need to worry so much. As long as your sweat doesn't get stuck there for a long period, it's ok. Furthermore, the rMBP's aluminium surface is much smoother than the cMBP's surface, so dirt and residue won't easily get stuck on it.

Actually, I'm quite curious. The cMBP's palmguard size is different than the rMBP? As I have seen some people online said they can use cMBP palmguard on their rMBP.

i mainly use these for normal stains -



but since i deal with traditional means of graphic design as well, i use these for tougher stains -



(mileage varies based on common sense applied :P)

this is not ideal but i usually use the spray that i use to clean my monitor, spray it on a micro fibre cloth as well, and clean the palm area. i have another micro fibre cloth purposely for the monitor so not to scratch the monitor, just in case any 'hard' dust gets trap while cleaning other parts of the mbp.

bro it seems like you are pretty equipped to clean your mbp. mind explaining how does that eraser works bro?

Does a cooler pad even help? Since the air vents of rMBP are at the sides.

as advertised, it works via magic! :P

i initially used them to remove stains off my dollfies which are made of, well, resin. mind you the eraser is pretty "abrasive" to an extent, so it might remove paint. i've never used it on any painted surfaces without first spot testing it.

It definitely helps!!
My MBP Retina is burning hot if place on my lap.
Really need the Cooler Pad to cool down the MBP...

I'm using Logitech's Comfort Lapdesk without fan to solve the hot issue when I'm using it on my lap in living room. I bought the Speaker Lapdesk N700 previously, but it doesn't help much cooling the mac at all. It's still hot when running on heavy apps and CS:GO. The built in lapdesk speakers, rmbp's integrated speakers trumped over it lol, so I gave it to my gf to use for her Alienware.

Olivur where you bought them ? pm pm!

Yeah i was wondering why cmbp differnet palm guard compared to rmbp aint they the same size?

zzz. I cannot wait, my rmbp redudced usage because i dare not use until stains on beautiful baby.

frys / bestbuy iianm. i re-stocked while i was state side earlier this year ._x

It doesn't matter where the vents are, since aluminium itself is a heatsink unlike plastic cheapo windows laptops.

When the aluminium gets hot, it will easily cool when a fan is place near it, vital if you like to game a lot on you Mac which can cause the components to go scorching hot - as you don't want your Mac to have permanent damage due to heat.
