    Hi Guys,

    I have MBP 13.3'' unibody and it has a glossy screen and it get reflection of me most of the time :(. I just recently came across a product at Radtech, ClearCal. I found out there are other products like this also available like ViewGaurd

    I want to know, has anybody used them? is it effective, does it really remove glare/reflection or just a gimmick.

    These work to an extent - they eliminate majority of the glare but not all. There are some pics of Viewguard if you search NBR. IMO there are better options from companies such as Photodon.
