we just discovered that our rear projection tv screen is scratched, probably by one of our little ones. Is there any way this can be polished out, or can the screen be replaced?
its a Hitachi HDTV, but you are right about your question. If it were possible to very carefully polish those scratches out, that could be cheap enough. The question is though how safe that would be and if I don't completely ruin my TV.
About replacing the screen, I am not so sure how much it would cost (it may be only plastic, but... :o)
No they are not just plastic screens!! Every Projection set has two sandwiched screens together or they ar both ground on each side. The screens are reallt lenses.Read this to see what im saying, and if you hve any other questions PLesa feel free to ask..http://www.techlore.com/comments/1006...
anything can be repaired. but is it worth it?? What brand and model is this scratch screen attached to?
Hi Larry,
