Well unfortunately perseverance! Necessity! And not even five minutes into a phone repair! My iOpener broke! Apparently the adhesive really sealed down well when I replace the screen in September for this person and then they accidentally broke the screen again. I was trying to figure out how to get it open after putting my eye opener in the microwave ( and I don't recommend more than a minute, I did a 1.5 and I don't like this microwave ) and I came back to a gooey mess. Trying to get in there with the guitar pics I couldn't get anything. then I thought well maybe if I heat up some water and use a paper towel.... well I was waiting for the microwave to finish it occurred to me Ziploc baggie! or in this case storebrand baggie! with double zippers! It worked I recommend the half size snack bags but in a pinch the sandwich bags work. I also recommend the double zipper variety.

I should also say I only filled the bag half full, basically an iPhone width with Water about one paper cups worth. I microwave the water for one minute.
The upside of this method is that it works in a pinch and it can also be adapted to different sizes of devices with larger bags.
If you could find something that's a little bit thicker it would be better for reuse Especially as the plastic gets thinner when it's hot. I'm almost thinking one of those silicone/rubber hot water bottle thing.
