Scratched 32" LCD Screen

    Help, my 2 year old daughter just took a screwdriver to my 32" LCD TV.
    There's about 6 scratches which are very noticeable with a white background.
    I rang Phillips but it would cost more than the price of a new one to replace screen.

    Googling threw up 3 ideas of using vaseline, an eraser or a felt tip dremel.
    Has anyone success with LCD scratch repair & could they advise please.

    Thanks.

    Howdy,

    Polishing scratches out of a glass/coated screen is near enough impossible and could well make your problem far worse. If you decide to give it a go, please remember that while the Web is full of useful advice, its full of useless advice too, and you're on your own once any more damage is done!

    If it was me and the scratches were not very obtrusive in normal viewing, I might be inclined to leave it alone, rather then make it worse.


    Ritz.

    i'd agree with Ritz,

    try washable things but I'd say after a while you don't even notice the damage-

    The new TVs don't seem to have a long life span anyway- so maybe the Jan sales could be a good time to buy one

    You could try to see if you can claim off your household insurance.
