The Armor-All treatment was never intended as a one-and-done, just as when using in your car. It's a maintenance approach which doesn't involve strenuous abrasion of the already compromised material which could just as easily crack or fall apart if worked on to vigorously. My $0.02.
A case/cover really makes a difference as well. Very little of my NST other than the screen is exposed when I'm reading, and it's all covered when I'm not. For me the Armor-All is maybe a once-year job or perhaps if I have some reason to remove the case.
Having used electrical tape for many years, I would be leery of applying it to the bezel, but as the NST can't possibly last forever, perhaps it does not matter.
I would be far more concerned about constant use of the hardware buttons to turn pages. The two devices I got for development of the Phoenix Project both had issues with the bezel where I was constantly using the buttons for testing. The material either cracked or small pieces literally fell out, leaving a hole.
Whether sticky or gooey, the bezel material is of far more concern than the back. I know many people are devoted to turning pages with buttons. I'm just sayin'....
