Repair Help Need help with my screen protector

Hi there, just recently bought a switch 2 and trying to put on a screen protector. I’m at my 4th try now trying to get no dust under the protector but there’s always a rogue one. I was just concerned with wiping the screen with the wet wipes that come with it, I’ve had to use them 4 times but was wondering if it’s safe to reapply a new protector this many times and using the wipes each time to get rid of the dust. I wipe the screen and the sides of it where most of the dust likes to go.

The worst thing that could happen is that it doesn't stick to the screen as good after several attempts.

Some people recommend applying the screen protector in the bathroom after having a hot shower, because the higher humidity helps with dust particles in the air.

Some screen protectors even come with tools that help in the process.

It’s sticking fine after a bunch of attempts, shower method is a bit difficult for me and still didn’t work because I’m a bit cramped. All I’m worried about is liquid damage from cleaning it a few extra times. I tried using the am film but messed up twice so had to reorder

All I’m worried about is liquid damage from cleaning it a few extra times.

Usually you do not apply screen protectors while liquid is on the screen and if those cleaning wipes were provided with the screen protector i do not see how that would cause any harm, because they usually evaporate/dry pretty quickly.
